WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — With the NCAA's policy on name, image and likeness taking full effect as of Thursday, more and more athletes across the country are  partnering with businesses and brands in order to make money.

Stock Risers is putting together a player-only staff that will write personalized blogs during the college basketball season. Other players working for the website include Illinois' Luke Goode, Florida State's Matthew Cleveland and Memphis' Landers Nolley II.
