[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1057273, member: 17953"] Middleton's understanding of it, at that time, was pretty much straight forward. It indicated the separation between the schools and the NIL money. So, what's changed? Essentially schools are now actually giving money directly to student athletes and being reimbursed by the outside collectives. The amount is insignificant what it means is that schools can give a player NIL money directly and essentially accepting it makes the agreement a binding contract. That's what Wisconsin is essentially doing from all outside appearances. If Wisconsin and Lucas signed an agreement where he would get so much money over a period of time, and advanced him any portion of it, this would mean he's already collecting on what can be considered a contract. If you look at the situation that happened with A.J. Storr, you get a little better picture of what's happening.
