(Salt Lake City, UT) — A judge is siding with five universities in Utah that challenged a State Records Committee decision calling for contracts with college athletes for name, image and likeness rights to be made public. Third District Judge Amber Mettler agreed with the University of Utah, Utah State, Weber State, Utah Valley and Southern Utah universities. She says the law passed earlier this year shielding NIL agreements from the state’s open records law applies retroactively.
