    In my head--- UF
    No - against state law and NIL rules to condition on performance

    Its much more likely conditioned on the contract rather than performance, or do you contend that companies providing NIL $ to player X still have to pay him after he hits the portal and heads off to a different school? I can assure you that companies creating these contracts are smart enough to construct them so that they are both legal and restrictive.

    They aren’t allowed to require them to attend a specific school or to actually play. They can’t be contingent on on-field performance. My guess is they are location based. For UF athletes, I would imagine they require they live within so many miles of Gainesville in order to fulfill their obligations. If they move out of the area, they break their contract.

    I blocked a handful of people, so for the life of me the "person" who disagreed with my 100% fact based post, I can't help you. Man some people:

    What is Prohibited Under the New NIL Rules?
    We spoke briefly about why pay-for-play is prohibited under the new NCAA policy, but what else can’t you do with regards to your NIL?

    Although it differs by state and school, in general athletes are prohibited from:

    • Receiving any performance-based incentives.

    and about 100 other sites including the UF rules

    No different than the nfl draft. You pay for the ranking and hope they aren’t a bust

    Has any of us actually seen a recent actual legit contract one of these kids signed? I'm curious to what it actually says. Assumptions make the mind go wild with imagination. Lol

    Some of this stuff is state law, so it's more than just what the NCAA is enforcing. Either way, it wouldn't make much sense to put things that are in direct violation of the rules and laws in writing.
