I don't think it would hold up in court absent a contract for a term. In other words, a true professional contract. While we are in this netherworld of pseudo-contract, and players are paid through a questionable "NIL Collective" setup, you can't really limit the options of a player---he is just capitalizing (in fiction) on his name and likeness, which the Supreme Court has said college athletes have the right to do. As long as there is not an employment contract like NBA players have, I don't think you can shut the portal.
