Question for NIL experts

[OrangeinDC]

Is there a $ threshold which makes a player no longer considered amateur? Are NIL funds allowed to be paid prior to graduation?

From what I understand, NIL does not influence amateur status. Players can make money from it immediately, no different than any student working any other job with no limits.

Thanks!! Love that kids can make money but it seems like a runaway train.
