Recently (Jan. 2024) we had a chance to join Athletic Department and staff of Norman, OK Public Schools (NPS) to discuss Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) and the impact on High School and College Athletics. NPS as a district has 15,786 students, competes in 6A Athletics and includes 17 elementary, four middle schools and 2 high schools, plus over 1,100 staffers! In this session we hosted over 40 coaches and athletic staff and shared best practices, insights in the industry, trends, differences between High School and College NIL and went in-depth into the recommendations and mandates around NIL Disclosures.
“Thank you to Bryan Bedford and the Bedford Agency for providing NPS head coaches valuable NIL training. This partnership will provide our coaches, student-athletes and their families valuable information that pertains to NIL” – TD O’hara Norman Public Schools District Athletic Director.

The types of trainings are becoming much more common place. Why? Because the NCAA is evolving its disclosure and transparency rules which WILL impact high school athletes starting in August 2024!
