Agent or no agent

As long as you are eligible for NCAA sports you cannot have an agent---you may though have an "advisor"

TRHit is right as usual. The NCAA states that no outside party can negotiate for the player and the player cannot enter into a contractual agreement with an agent. The "advisor" role was devised because of this. The role of the advisor did allow the agent to contact the player and act as his advisor throughout the draft and negotiation process with the hopes of becoming his agent if he signs. The player and/or his parents are the only people allowed to negotiate with the professional club.

How does this sound......

As I understand it, the agent/advisor can be one in the same. The agent/advisor may not speak to the club on the athlete's behalf. Once the agent/advisor does this he becomes your agent (or by contract obviously). Until than he is your advisor, as you may bounce things off of him. The athlete is the middle man so to speak.

That's right.
