[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 874054, member: 2426"] Past violations don't necessarily get cleared because of a rule change. Also, there would have been no NIL reason if the funding is under the table. But I am skeptical of the anonymous long time NFL agent quote. The "funding" by agents wasn't to "fund these kids" it was to get the potential stars locked in to an agent. The agents weren't altruistically donating money so that starving players would have money. They were investing money to build relationships with players they want to sign. This quote doesn't make sense because the NIL money can take away influence that agents might be able to have with college athletes. I think the agents would rather be able to use money and provide a couple hundred thousand of "funds" per year to multiple players and sign a couple with very large contracts rather than have to compete for players based solely merits of the agent.
