can schools recoup NIL money from players who sit out bowl games?

no lawyer, but I'd think no if it's not in the agreement
also if a player is injured would they also not get paid? and if not, then how do you determine if a player is "legit" injured? or if a player gets injured because they were forced to play?
not insurmountable issues, but tricky, and would require some significant lawyering
as many have said, right now is the wild west. the real pros have much more rules.

that is something they need to balance - meaning, at what point do you hold kids accountable, while still being a likeable school to new recruits?
how much are you (random school) willing to lose by not suing?
you have to enforce at some point because while enforcing may hurt recruiting, recruiting is also pointless if a talented kid takes your money and just bails... Every school not named bama or ohio state, will get burned once their prized kid gets an offer to those top schools.

I thought NIL contracts were with third parties. If that's correct with Cincinnati, even have standing to sue?

It was a revenue share agreement. There was a $1 million buyout in it. When he first transferred it was reported that Texas Tech was aware of the buyout and was willing to pay it. Seems like somewhere along the lines, they reneged on that.
