NCAA Stance on Crowdfunding...

[jazzpt55]

As I read things an athlete could set up Crowd Funding site to pay for things like expensive equipment and trainers????

From the article...
An athlete may set up their own crowdfunding campaign as long as the funds raised are used for “actual and necessary” expenses related to competition and practice (for team athletes) or an event and practice immediately preceding the event (for individual athletes).

Anybody know
