NIL laws have touched on a variety of unexpected areas, including how high school students are (or are not) allowed to profit off of their rights of publicity. Shifting political realities have led to high schoolers' rights being augmented, removed, or allowed, and we have seen star high school athletes going so far as to move to a different state in order to avoid overly restrictive NIL regulations. What's driving all of this, and how might we look at NIL items related to high school students in the near future?
