If they allow schools to directly compensate players then yes they can cap
It either per player or by only allowing a certain amount they can spend total. But there needs to be severe consequences if schools cheat that cap or total. Like SEVERE!! Almost death penalty severe. But you are right about not capping what outside NIL they get but they make it a multi year contract to protect program and player from backing out early.

No one should want this. If the schools have to share revenue with players then most if not all non revenue sports will be done. Because if they pay the football players, then they need to pay the track runners the same amount. and if they pay men, then they have to equally pay women. NIL is the right avenue for the money.

Highly unlikely unless those terms are collectively bargained for. The NFL has a salary cap ONLY because the players and owners agreed to those terms. MLB doesn't because the players' union won't agree to it.
More than that, the schools DO NOT want to directly compensate the players. It's a terrible business model for them relative to the current model. One, where the school doesn't have to share any of the revenue generated (in part) by the players. The players are getting paid...but by outside entities.
Likewise, football and men's basketball players DO NOT want direct compensation from the school. One, because that would bring federal law into play that would likely required equal compensation among all athletes. Men and women. Right now football and basketball players are getting paid market value. That almost assuredly goes away with direct compensation. Second, the players hold a ton of leverage in NIL negotiations as there are, essentially, perpetual free agents. No union representing there interest would want to give that up. MLB fought against it all the way to the USSC
