Already law in California, with many states including Florida likely to follow:

"(FL) Gov. Ron DeSantis is backing efforts by Florida lawmakers seeking to lift NCAA rules that prevent college athletes from signing endorsement deals and profiting from their athletic prowess.

DeSantis joined a bipartisan group of lawmakers and former Florida State University football players Thursday to announce his support."

Clearly this move in Florida's GOP controlled government will affect the nature of "amateur" college sports in the state, other states, and the need for the NCAA itself.
