    We should dump the pUke from our upcoming schedule... and never again schedule them.

    from the article:

    "Under the heading “Impermissible contacts/recruiters”, it gives an example of what’s not allowed: “A representative of the institution’s athletics interests (e.g., individual booster or collective) contacts a prospect or their family about potential NIL opportunities prior to the prospect signing with the institution.” Collectives can’t proactively reach out to unsigned recruits, in other words."

    This is what I've been wondering about. I've assumed that this is a recruiting violation. Rashada's situation (and contract details now) are very public. But we all know this is exactly how it has worked with almost every NIL deal for big name players.

    Ruiz seems confident that he's done things in a way that does not violate this. How? If specifics of an NIL deal are discussed BEFORE SIGNING...that is a violation. Ruiz has done it. Our collective has done it. I'd assume every other school with organized NIL has done it.

    I don't want the NCAA hammer to fall on us. But I DO want to see them enforce this.

    Think the before part is a state law in Florida, other states are not bound. Miami is a private school. Also it was mentioned that the possum of said contract being issued by out of state companies. We will see how all this plays out. Lawyers being lawyers . They will get around intent one way or another.

    It doesn't matter if UM is a private school or not, they still need to comply with State law. If it is ever enforced at all.

    I don't think it's a new rule, but a clarification of the rules. It sounds like we are very much at risk.


    pUKe are the big blue cats, the team in which you refer to is scUM. There is also slUT based on their using coeds to go off campus on "recruiting" trips.

    From what I understand, private schools aren’t affected the same way public schools are. Contracts done outside of Florida do not fall under Florida law. I’m certainly no expert but people who are have cited as much

    Agreed. If anyone comes after us, I think we’ll be ok.

    Miami is at greater risk They paid Rashada. No money changed hands from our side.

    Is this true? Then NIL is a state issue and not a national issue?

    If so, then the NCAA can't do diddly squat to any university with regards to the NIL deal/s.

    There’s still rules, just different in each state. Proving things when no one talks will be hard though. Why would anyone talk? It hurts everyone involved.

    It is true that some/many states (like Florida) has rules/laws concerning student athletes and NIL's. However, the NCAA still has a lot of clout (if they choose when/where to use it) on enforcing its NIL rules for the colleges that are members of the NCAA.

    It is oblivious that the "Sacred Cow" schools rarely get even a wrist slap for violations. Thus schools like Bama will get a wink and a nod as they do what they always have done.

    Lol. Good luck with that. The NCAA would get flattened if they try this

    You didn't see their presumption of guilt language? Plus, they've used that presumption for a long time as they had no proof that Galen Hall paid anything for Jarvis Williams, but it "looked" bad, so they found us guilty.
