How's that an NCAA violation? Players are allowed to autograph things, as long as they aren't being paid for them.
Perhaps the rules have changed since 1984. I did not take time to look it up. But, Indiana basketball player Steve Alford was suspended one game in 1984 for letting his picture be used on a calender which was being sold for charitable purposes. I don't see how signing stuff to be sold for a pee wee (assumption) football team is different. I'd hope the rule had been modified, but I do not know.

I'm pretty sure if Julio isn't selling it himself, it's not an NCAA violation. Just like when these teams have there fan days and there signing things, they cannot control what the fan does. If the fan wants to sell it, they can. It's not an NCAA violation against the player.

It was changed when 9 Ga football players sold their SEC Championship rings that they were given back in the early 2000's.
