A NIL recruiting inducement is an offer of compensation or a deal related to a student-athlete's NIL that is used to convince them to enroll at a specific school, which is against the rules. This could include cash payments, gifts or other benefits offered during the recruiting process to sway a recruit, and it is distinct from NIL opportunities a student-athlete can pursue after they have already committed to a school.
If you suspect inducement, report it immediately to the Athletic Office. Inducement can include any business, community member, family member or outside individual offering compensation linked to enrollment, transfer or playing time.
