AARP Wyoming and Wyoming Cowboys Team Up To Stop Scams
While AARP Wyoming has partnered with Wyoming Sports Properties to promote its work during Cowboy football and basketball broadcasts for the past three years, this video represents the first time collegiate student-athletes have been spokespersons for the organization. That is thanks to a June 30, 2021 rule change in which NCAA college athletes are now allowed to benefit from their name, image and likeness (NIL) directly. This video marks the first time AARP has taken part in an NIL deal with college athletes.

Interesting. But aren’t NIL deals prohibited from using any logos, uniforms, names, banners of the university?

I would assume in this instance, UW was involved and OKed the use, considering the cause. Very cool.
