Well it's tricky- they are a publicly traded company. So if they have a corporate giving account that goes to various Memphis area universities then they are not necessarily a booster, Memphis is just one of the non profits that has likely applied for funds or been granted them through a regular giving event. In this case, if Memphis is directing and working with a publicly traded company to cut an NIL deal with conditions of attending the University, that is not being a booster that is a violation of the NIL rules.

Now if Memphis referred them to Fedex as a possible source of NIL opportunity and FedEx shared what they could do and the advantages of being in the Memphis area then this works exactly as planned. To me that is how it would work best in our case too. It is a slippery slope.

Essentially kid signs a deal with a company and could attend UT if he wanted. Once you lay a contingency on it, that is likely where it crosses a line.
