Actually, I transferred from UT-Arlington to UNT after reaching out to the next editor and finding out whether she'd be interested in my girlfriend and I joining the newspaper. It was a weird situation that's not entirely different than an athlete coming because a coach offers them a spot. We were pissed off at UTA because of some shit that went down there.
In any case if recruitment is what stops an athlete from being an employee, then you are saying that walkons are employees.
I think you're overcomplicating things. Athletes perform work, their work generates revenue for schools, schools should pay them.
Athletes currently are not employees, full or part time. They don't receive pay from the school. NIL is a private contract for endorsement services, not school pay either. I don't understand your debate with yourself?
