Sorry Dwight, only schools and bowls can use you to advertise
Posted Dec 19, 2011
College football players having their name and likeness used in promotional efforts? Perfectly kosher for universities, television and bowls. Not so kosher when the actual players do the same thing. Clemson's Sammy Watkins and North Carolina's Dwight Jones are featured in promotional fliers for holiday parties. The NCAA isn't keen on that sort of thing.
