Notre Dame Won't Participate in EA Sports Video Game Until NIL Rules Finalized

Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick said Monday that the school won't provide its name, logos, and additional branding to EA Sports for its future college football video game until "rules have been finalized governing the participation of our student-athletes."

"As those rules are developed, it is our strong desire that student-athletes be allowed to benefit directly from allowing their name, image and performance history to be used in the game," Swarbrick said in a statement.

The NCAA has indicated that it intends to change its rules to allow college athletes the ability to make money from some type of endorsement deals.
