Michican RB Smith Selling Autographed Photos of Clowney's Hit
 
I've been saying he should do this.....cash in brother, cash in....

Quote:
BSO - Former Michigan running back Vincent Smith is a running celebration everyday on ESPN thanks to their best of the best segment. Smith is now the most famous victim in sports thanks to the Outback Bowl destruction at the hands of Jadeveon Clowney. Smith was asked about the hit in late January, and stated that he need to move on from it.

“You’ve got to get it out of your head because I’m going to bounce back and turn it into a positive,” Smith said. “I saw it later on ESPN and yeah, he got me. And I forgot about it.”

Smith is moving on from it, and making a little change off of it. Smith who no longer has eligibility is now profiting off that destructive hit from Clowney via autograph signings of photos of the hit. Vincent was recently spotted at a Kiosk in Toledo, Ohio signing autographed photos of the hit for $60 a pop. Maumee, OH sports memorabilia store Hall of Framers is now selling a framed autographed copy of the hit.

Isn't this an NCAA violation?

He is no longer eligiable. He was a senior.

He'll be doing these shows when he's 70 talking about the day Clowney knocked the taste outta his mouth. Glad to see him embrace it.

Yea but he is still profiting off of the image of a current NCAA player in Clowney. It even mentions Clowneys name on the bottom of the framed picture.

Since he's graduated he can sell these.

He is certianly allowed to sell images of himself and make a money from it but he is also selling a image of a active NCAA player in Clowney as well which is against the rules.

Technically he could say that he's only profiting off his image, and that JC is simply in the picture... similar to Marcus making a run on a play and other guys just being in the picture (as they watch him score might I add). The likeness he's profiting off of is his own, not JC's. Just not in his best light.

I think the difference also is not selling it, as much as where does the money go once sold... if it went to JC, then it would be a violation... going to V. Smith... nope.

who the heck is going to want Smith's autograph on that picture? I can understand having both, but I would want Clowney to sign if I only had on signature. And I sure as hell wouldn't pay 60 bucks for Smith's autograph

No one can use a image of a current NCAA player in any type of merchandise and make money off of it period. It even says Clowneys name at the bottom. What he is doing is a clear NCAA violation.

OK... so first question... say it is... who will you penalize? Michigan? he no longer goes there, so a player isn't profiting. Jadevon Clowney? nope, he made no money and didn't sell it. Vincent Smith? He's done with his eligibility.

What's being discussed now is can the NCAA profit from Current or former players.

It is just a miracle he still knows his name and has the ability to write it.

Re: Michican RB Smith Selling Autographed Photos of Clowney's Hit
 
I think that whole who can profit on current players likeness thing is still being sorted out in court as to does the NCAA own their rights or not, and where it falls under. However many artists have pictures of drawing and things of players, both current and former. Its not a violation... the question is where legally it falls. Its a copyright question.

The NCAA does it every single day, why don't you go after them instead?
