"Tax evasion is not an ncaa violation"- ncaa rule book.
Someone posted on Twitter that Jordan has to miss most of the first semester due to academics. If true, that may be why schools like Kentucky and Gonzaga backed off. Personally I hope he does well. He has a Ragin Cajuns degree and I always pull for fellow alumni.
For professional state taxes are treated as where each game is played and thus numerous states returns become involved. I doubt they would ever go to that level for ncaa but something to consider. Although technically the payment is for whatever event they utilized NIL so most of the time that would probably be near campus
Wait, he has a degree but has to miss time because of academics? That doesn’t make sense.
It makes plenty of sense. He graduated before the season started and in order to remain eligible to play he needed to take a certain amount of hours. After the semester was over it was shown that he had not taken the proper amount of hours thus he would be suspended for the first ten games of the following season.
One clarification, Jordan graduated in December of 22 which was about a third of the way through the season. I presume the reason he did not complete the spring semester hours required (assuming Million$Mullet is correct with his information) is that he was busy working out with guys who help people prepare for the professional ranks. I do know that to play at Memphis or anywhere but here he has to be accepted into a graduate program. That is due to the fact he transferred previously. Would not have been case here. He could work on a 2nd degree.
