More than 10 months after college athletes were first allowed to begin profiting from their name, image and likeness, the NCAA plans to begin cracking down on recruiting violations related to NIL.
New guidance released by the NCAA on Monday specifies that boosters cannot make NIL deals with recruits or have conversations with recruits about NIL to entice them to attend a specific school. The guidance also specifies that NIL deals for current athletes may not be contingent on athletic performance or achievement or on an athlete enrolling at or continuing to attend a specific school.
