Can an opposing NIL collective ink a deal with a player to just not play?

Does this avoid point shaving laws?

Can an NIL collective pay a rivals star QB with a wink wink that they’ll opt out of a game?

I mean the chance is almost zero this happens but is it technically possible now that the NCAA can’t do shite?

I say yes. But what is more likely is that Blue Bloods will just buy smaller schools and keep players on those rosters to call up if needed, and to your point, play keep away.

This practice will escalate greatly when they put a cap on what university can spend.

True, the NCAA is powerless, but DoJ attorneys might not be a fan.

Do you have my Venmo #? If you pay me enough I’ll root for LSU.

An epiphany can strike anytime...sometimes booze or drug induced.

That's a serious question...... so you are clearly on the wrong forum.

I don’t know if they could pay him not to play but couldn’t they just hire him as an highly paid employee so he retires from football? Which would be the same thing.

Until there are legal contracts subject to some governing body, as long as there is escalating money involved, anything can happen.

Bryant "allegedly" used to sign players to keep them off other rosters before limits were imposed. With a toothless NCAA, money talks.

I say no. These deals are not performance-based.

Ole Miss was doing something similar to this under Freeze. We paid a lot of recruits to not take visits or sign with certain schools. That’s supposedly what pissed off some bigger programs and lead to them crying to the NCAA

Yes. Ole Miss signed Spencer Sanders to ride the bench instead of play at Auburn.

I’d chip in to fund the top player at each of the five positions in men’s college basketball to agree to transfer, and play one year, at the same school - say Slippery Rock or Sewanee - as long as they agree to play for the women’s team.

Let’s just get this silly schitt decided, once and for all.
