re: Jay-Z to sell his ownership in Nets & become a NBA agent

The NFL Players Association is looking into Roc Nation's recruitment of New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith, NFL.com reported Friday.
Roc Nation was founded by Jay-Z, but he is not yet certified by the players' union to act as an agent. Friends or colleagues who are not certified agents are not allowed to be present during meetings in which an agency is recruiting a player.

Smith's adviser John Thornton told CBS earlier this week, "I was in those meetings, and Jay-Z connected with him on many levels."

Thornton later said he was misquoted.

Smith also posted an Instragram picture of himself with Jay-Z during the recruiting process.
