Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 3278993, member: 44"] Here's the money question, are Adidas/Gassnola boosters of Kansas? If not then payments by them aren't an NCAA violation. I think they are, but that would be the way out for KU. [INDENT][URL='http://www.ncaa.org/enforcement/role-boosters'][I]Boosters, referred to by the NCAA as “representatives of the institution’s athletic interests,”[/I][/URL][I] include anyone who has:[/I][/INDENT] [LIST] [*][INDENT][I]Provided a donation in order to obtain season tickets for any sport at the university.[/I][/INDENT] [*][INDENT][I]Participated in or has been a member of an organization promoting the university’s athletics programs.[/I][/INDENT] [*][INDENT][I]Made financial contributions to the athletic department or to a university booster organization.[/I][/INDENT] [*][INDENT][I]Arranged for or provided employment for enrolled student-athletes.[/I][/INDENT] [*][INDENT][I][B]Assisted or has been requested by university staff to assist in the recruitment of prospective student-athletes.[/B][/I][/INDENT] [*][INDENT][I][B]Assisted in providing benefits to enrolled student athletes or their families.[/B][/I][/INDENT] [*][INDENT][I][B]Been involved otherwise in promoting university athletics.[/B][/I][/INDENT] [/LIST] [INDENT][I]Once an individual is identified as a “representative of the institution’s athletics interests,” the person retains that identity forever.[/I][/INDENT] Based on the three in bold. I think they would be KU boosters. [/QUOTE]
