The NCAA’s Board of Directors Wednesday approved allowing athletes to profit from their names and images, okaying one of the biggest changes ever in college sports.

The expected decision came as a growing number of states passed laws that would have allowed athletes to profit in this way anyway, and as several of the laws in those states going into effect today.

The NCAA will also allow athletes to enter into agreements with agents, but they are expected to keep their school informed of any and all name, image and likeness arrangements.
