There used to be an NCAA rule about this. If a player is recruited he has to count against the 13 scholarships no matter how his scholarship is paid. Any contact between a coach and player effectively puts him in this category.

The only way to overcome this would be to be admitted into the university as a regular student, and then to make sure you never talked to the coaches or players, or if you did, it had to be done secretly.
Now there are players recruited as preferred walk-ons in football. And no worries about roster limits.

That has always been there though. Preferred walk-ons for football have always been allowed. The rule has been enforced in bball.

All the hand-wringing about APR seems downright adorable in retrospect.
Is that even still a thing?

We were seriously the only remotely big-name team to ever face a penalty on that. It's enough to make you believe in conspiracy theories.

Until someone (grad transfer or otherwise) wants to transfer to Auburn on August 28th and sues the NCAA for restricting his ability to earn a living.

Give it up with "rules". Has the NCAA won a challenge on any rule or disciplinary decision in a decade? Make these contractual agreements. Most likely no non-competes though, as the FTC just passed a rule banning those.

This is a very interesting name. Staff may be too deep already with Mahaney and Brea, but this guy is Brea with other stuff to his game. Heavily linked to Tennessee and Maryland already.

Read a couple times Tennessee has been tampering / trying to get into portal all season. I’d suspect Lanier’s going there.

Should be a fun couple of days where the seniors that were going to wait and jump in later this summer to gain leverage for increased NIL offers will be entering now

So that change in the timeline is true, that all portal entrants must enter their name before May 1st even if they have graduated?

Norchad and Wooga portalling makes me think those Life Wallet checks haven’t cleared.
