[QUOTE="forensicbuzz, post: 959666, member: 198"] This is exactly what agents do to tie up young talent. As others have said, it happens all the time in the minor leagues in baseball. It also happens after football players end their eligibility and are preparing for the draft or upcoming NFL mini-camps. The agents are fronting the money with the expectation of future earnings. They're gambling on these guys making it and their payoff being big. This is nothing like an insurance policy. The insurance policies you're talking about are for when a high talent player is injured and not able to capitalize on the promise of a big contract. An insurance policy doesn't pay out unless there is a loss. What essentially was done was this kid took money from an agent or an agency that is fronting money based on future earnings. That is not NIL, that is NOT pay-for-play. This is what makes a player ineligible and can get UF in major trouble if the NCAA were enforcing the rules. Yes, the NCAA is turning a blind eye to the pay-for-play NIL racket, but this is not that. [/QUOTE]
