Miami has a collective funded by one Booster but yet they are ok? What is the difference?
To be honest there probably is none and I would think every major school in the country has a collective driven by booster(s). UT just happen to have someone involved mention I believe something that happened that allowed the NCAA to jump quickly to try and connect the dots for a violation.
The courts have hampered their attempts to deal with NIL but if they can prove recruiting violations took place involving NIL they believe they can move forward.
Again they were unlucky as the NCAA was waiting for an opportunity like this.

I think one thing people may not realize is that the school itself is required to review NIL deals.
The player has to disclose all NIL deals to the school. If they are found to not have done so, the school is required to suspend the player from playing sports.
The school is required to go over the NIL deals. If those violate the NCAA rules (such as being pay to play), the school is required to suspend the player.
The NCAA punishes the school if their investigation finds the school did not do these things. It seems that the NCAA believes that one (or more) of the NIL deals UT players have signed violate NCAA rules, and UT allowed the players to compete rather than suspending them.
Here is the "pay to play" section of the NCAA bylaws.

"22.01.2 Offers and Inducements. Name, image and likeness activities may not be used as an inducement for an individual to enroll or remain enrolled at a specific institution."
"22.2.2 Name, Image and Likeness Disclosure. A student-athlete must disclose a name, image and likeness agreements to the institution no later than 30 days after entering or signing the agreement. A prospective student-athlete must disclose current and expired name, image and likeness agreements no later than 30 days after enrollment in the institution. After 30 days, an institution shall not permit the student-athlete to participate in athletically related activities until the disclosure requirement is satisfied."
"22.2.2.2 Name, Image and Likeness Attestation. An individual’s disclosure of name, image and likeness activities must include attestation that:
(a) All disclosed information is complete and accurate;
(b) The disclosed activity is consistent with institutional and conference policy, NCAA rules and any applicable state or federal law;
(c) Pay or promise of pay related to the disclosed activity is not a substitute for payment for athletics participation or achievement or an inducement to enroll or remain enrolled at a specific institution; and
(d) Acknowledgement that failure to disclose or fraudulent disclosure may constitute impermissible unethical conduct (see Bylaw 10.1)."
"22.2.2.4 Effect of Violation. As it relates to compliance with institutional policies consistent with Bylaw 22.2.1 or its subsections, an institution shall only be held accountable through the NCAA infractions process for actions that clearly demonstrate a disregard for its stated policies."
