THis article will help answer the question. It may be a bit diffeent being we are talking about someone who has already entered college.

quote:

Below are some general guidelines to help you understand the activities you should consider when evaluating your amateur status.

Avoid agents The one consensus violation of amateurism rules across all the collegiate athletic associations is entering into a contract with an agent or receiving benefits from an agent (whether or not you have a contract with them).

Professional competition

If you wish to play for a sports college in the NJCAA, NAIA, or Division I of the NCAA, you may not compete as a professional or enter into a contract with a professional team. However, each association has its own specific regulations regarding your competition as an amateur either against professionals or with professional teammates. Check with each association to see what is permissible. Note that in most cases, these situations are also violations of amateurism rules.
