NIL Information for Agents

Agents: 
Outside of assisting with contracts for compensation (NIL) and in sports other than men’s basketball, current student-athletes will become ineligible if they have agreed, orally or in writing, to be represented, now or in the future, by an agent.  The individual could also be ruled ineligible if they, or their family or friends, have accepted a benefit from the agent.
 
In men's basketball, any individual who solicits a prospective or enrolled student‐athlete to enter into an agency contract or attempts to obtain employment for an individual with a professional sports team or organization or as a professional athlete must be certified and maintain active certification per the policies and procedures of the NCAA agent certification program. A family member of a prospective or enrolled student-athlete or an individual acting solely on behalf of a professional sports team or organization is not required to be certified through the NCAA agent certification program. NCAA-certified agent is presumed responsible for the actions of all employees who report, directly or indirectly, to the NCAA-certified agent. Improper conduct of an NCAA-certified agent's employees shall subject the agent to disciplinary action pursuant to the NCAA agent certification program.
