How does NCAA say it's OK for Notre Dame women's bball

player to get paid to be on "Dancing With the Stars", but last year, said a football player couldn't make money from a website he was running. The girl is totally capitalizing on her notoriety of hitting 2 buzzer beaters to lead ND to the NCAA basketball championship. The football player's business venture had nothing to do with his athletic skills.
It sounds like they are pandering to women's sports, letting her do it just to bring more publicity to NCAA women's basketball.

longtallsam ---- Always remember, there is no logical reasoning behind any decision rendered by the NCAA. The recent UNC scandal is an excellent example of this mind set.

Pretty sure she is not a senior and planning to play next year

And she is getting paid, even if it is nothing but free dance lessons! Which I doubt! She is capitalizing on her athletic ability, and the football player was not.
If it were Jalen Hurts wanting to be on the show, he would not be allowed! It is just the NCAA bending over backwards to promote women's sports. Which is fine, but don't be stopping male athletes from having the same opportunity!

Like Deshaun Watson hosting paid camps once the eligibility is gone you can do that or if you’ve declared you’ve voided your remaining eligibility

From what I've read she will only be able to win prize money, which is due to her "abilities or improvement in dancing."
The NCAA only cares about them making money off their likeness, which was probably the issue with the football player, not their athletic ability.

She would not be on the show,if not for her athletic ability

She is 100% capitalizing on the notoriety she gained in the NCAA tourney! And how did they rule against the football player having a You Tube channel? That had nothing to do with "profiting from his likeness!"
The NCAA is so hypocritical!!

Of course the YouTube channel profited from his likeness

If Trevor Lawrence started a YouTube channel today, how many Clemson fans do you think would sub? How many would sub if he was just some guy that nobody had ever heard of?

a football player, playing pro baseball without losing his eligibility. Again I ask, why was the football player declared ineligible for running a YouTube channel? He was profiting from his media skills, not his "likeness".
My point is, it is obviously a double standard!

He was declared ineligible because he didn't agree to the compromise the NCAA suggested, which was to not collect revenue from videos related to athletics, but he still could have profited off of non-athletic videos.
So really the NCAA gave him a pass to make money, just not on one genre of video and he declined the offer. Therefore, the school suspended him to avoid conflict with the NCAA (as a compliance office should), and that was that.
Good on the kid for standing up for what he felt was right, but the big bad NCAA didn't completely shut him down.
