No they aren't. THe courts aren't going to accept that level of regulation on players ability to earn money.

There's no regulation on the players ability to earn money. They can accept as much NIL as they want.

What we've learned from the court cases is that while the NCAA might be able to make rules on what their members can do, they can't make rules on contracts between a player and a third party.

Exactly. Players are now free to accept whatever they want. They'll also get a salary. But nobody can compel a team to play any given player.

This is the only sound option.
