Is this just a permanently gray undefined area, like "looks shady, but never illegal", or are there any specific NCAA rules addressing the practice?

sort of hard to police. You can't really tell a school, oh you can't hire this coach because his son plays sports, or because his brother is a recruit.

If they don't actually do the work, or if you give them like a house with it, or if the job is unrelated to the school that is another matter.
