As for being paid . I feel that a monthly ( or semester ) stipend could be added for qualifying expenses. But no pay.

The hard part is the phase " paid for use of likeness" -- You can not use NCAA or member institution logos or identification without their consent. That is the catch. And the athlete can not receive restricted compensation . So every dollar " paid for use of likeness" would be looked at to see if it came from a booster (??? ) .
Shouldn't matter who it comes from as long as it isn't a gangster or gambler.
