COLUMBUS – Ohio could be the next state to allow collegiate athletes to make money off their name, image and likeness – after lagging behind most of the country. Under a new bill, college athletes could make money off the use of their name, image and likeness, enter contracts and hire representation.   There would be some limitations: Athletes would need to inform their universities 15 days before entering into a contract and could not endorse marijuana, alcohol, tobacco, adult entertainment or casinos. All collegiate athletes would be eligible – not just Division I athletes at places like Ohio State University and the University of Cincinnati – and some prospective students, such as commits shortly before they enroll, Antani said. Universities would police their own athletes without statewide oversight.
