Since some Tennessee fans can't read well and/or don't want to see the evidence of what I'm posting, here is the cliff-notes version.
1 - Collectives are boosters by the NCAA definition last updated in 2000.
2 - Any restriction an individual would have would also be in effect for a collective.
3 - The state of Tennessee sued the NCAA yesterday to make it so NIL deals are allowed to induce players to attend a certain school as part of the NIL contract.
4 - This means UT is likely being investigated/charged with allowing NIL deals with inducements to attend Tennessee.
5 - That inducement bylaw is the only existing NCAA restriction on NIL deals (though individual states have extra rules).
6 - I think it's good if that rule gets enforced. I believe it will fix most of the NIL issues we see.
If that's too long... I can't help ya.

I would’ve agreed that the NCAA had ground to stand on as recently as last month.
Everyone is overlooking the fact the DOJ just joined action against the NCAA’s transfer portal rules. The plaintiffs primarily cite “limiting NIL potential” & leverage the reality of bidding wars in their argument.
Do we think the federal government is going to say that the NCAA cannot attempt to dampen bidding on potential transfers… but if they’re not enrolled yet — different story?
Doesn’t make any sense.
