Description

The recent settlement in House v. NCAA has opened the door for direct payments by schools to student-athletes and implemented a structure similar to professional sports. While this settlement further opens up financial opportunities for student-athletes, it amplifies the need for significant federal and state tax planning for these athletes.

Generally, this settlement ends the long-standing amateurism model regarding student-athletes. As a result, some states are enacting laws to offer certain tax breaks to compete with states that have no state income taxes. This forces student-athletes to consider the tax implications, reporting requirements, and available tax planning options in light of the new structure and the enactment of laws by certain states in response to the settlement.

Tax advisers for athletes must keep in mind the various federal, state, and potential issues stemming from the House v. NCAA settlement, and its impact on NIL agreements and direct payments from schools to student-athletes.

Listen as our authoritative panel examines the House v. NCAA settlement and new structures in compensating student-athletes, federal and state tax challenges, reporting requirements, and tax planning for student-athletes.
