Athletic Conferences Don’t Have The Right To Stop Daily Fantasy Sports, But Players Might

Last week, the NCAA and several member athletic conferences expressed an intent to crack down on daily fantasy sports.  Yet, neither the college football trade association nor any of its member conferences has the power to prevent daily fantasy football websites from using college football players’ names and statistics in their games.  Rather, it is the college football players that have the strongest legal argument to stop this activity — should they choose — based on the alleged infringement of their publicity rights.
