You are correct.That makes no sense. The NIL money is not coming from the college, so its not receiving any Federal financing and therefore can't be subject to Title IX conditions.
So, what we have now is players not playing for a school but playing for the booster group that is paying the athlete. Like Slobo said, what could possibly go wrong. I think college should be for amateurs only with a free education, free food, free housing, a per diem and if they finish school with a degree, a nice little "bonus" for finishing what they started. A little gift to say, "thank you" and start their new life.You are correct.
However, boosters have connections with businesses outside of the booster group. This means while NIL $$$ provided to a player might be coming from a business outside of the booster. The decision to provide $$$ to a player likely came from booster org. NCAA isn't the police and can't run multi year sting operations on boosters + businesses that are unofficially working together to provide NIL to players. This and the general desire to control players with $$$ is why NCAA is pushing to have certification type programs for boosters and that NIL can only come from certified (by NCAA) booster organizations. Basically instead of owning the players with "student athlete / amateur" BS NCAA wants to control players by controlling the groups that give them NIL/$$$. (Which is illegal)
