The NCAA is trying to redefine the collective itself (Spyre) as a booster, thus Nico being flown in on a booster private jet. Spyre is a collective, not a booster. That is what UT is arguing.

Exactly. In which case every collective would have to be shut down.

This I agree with as I think the NCAA knows they have to be careful how they proceed but want to make a big statement. The only way for this to happen is by making the collective an arm of the boosters to establish grounds for illegal recruiting of Nico.

UT just happened to be in their crosshairs as I mentioned earlier. Either way however this ends will set a precedent moving forward.

We will see if this argument works, but A booster is a booster irregardless of his association as a leader within a collective
