十大联盟通过第三方代言新规：每校代言安排上限2,750万美元，另加2,200万美元直接收入分成
伊利诺伊州库克县罗斯蒙特市消息：总部位于罗斯蒙特的十大联盟10月28日宣布，联盟各校校长与校长理事会已批准一项新规，限制成员学校参与安排第三方姓名、形象与肖像（NIL）代言协议。每所学校安排的第三方代言协议总额不得超过2,750万美元，另加2,200万美元直接收入分成，合计上限约4,900万美元。
新规立即生效，违规将面临不断加重的经济处罚及其他纪律措施。联盟表示，制定新规是为了配合国会正在审议的《保护大学体育法案》：该法案已于9月28日在参议院以较大优势通过，众议院定于11月9日复会后表决。
十大联盟校长理事会主席、印第安纳大学校长帕梅拉·惠滕表示，在等待法案通过期间，各成员学校必须能够按照法案的经济框架开始规划、预算和组建阵容；新规不仅能让过渡更加顺畅，也表明联盟支持该法案的决心。近年来大学运动员报酬水涨船高、转会限制大幅放宽，法案与联盟新规旨在为大学体育的经济结构划定边界。

Big Ten Caps School-Arranged Third-Party NIL Deals at $27.5 Million a School, Plus $22 Million in Direct Revenue Sharing
ROSEMONT, Cook County, Illinois — The Big Ten Conference, headquartered in Rosemont, announced on Oct. 28 that its university presidents and chancellors have approved a new rule limiting member schools' involvement in arranging third-party name, image and likeness (NIL) deals. Each school's arranged third-party NIL deals may total no more than $27.5 million, on top of $22 million in direct revenue sharing, for a combined cap of about $49 million.
The rule takes effect immediately, with escalating financial penalties and other discipline for violations. The conference said the rule is designed to align with the College Athletics Protection Act pending in Congress: the bill passed the Senate by a wide margin on Sept. 28, and the House is set to vote after it reconvenes on Nov. 9.
Pamela Whitten, president of Indiana University and chair of the Big Ten's council of presidents and chancellors, said that while awaiting the bill's passage, member schools must be able to begin planning, budgeting and building rosters under the bill's economic framework, and that the rule will smooth the transition and shows the conference's support for the legislation. With college athlete pay soaring and transfer restrictions loosening, the bill and the conference rule aim to set boundaries for the economics of college sports.
