Effective July 1, 2026, deals valued $600–$15,000 are not RoC-reviewed unless/until an athlete exceeds $50,000 in Associated deals in an academic year. CSC also approved moving the model from confidence intervals to prediction intervals in early July to better reflect compensation variability, with temporary forbearance on borderline over-bound deals during the update. The memo separately warns against institution–agent consulting payments that may circumvent rules.","sledRelevance":"Newly relevant official control-layer documentation of the live NIL Go scoring regime—anchors FOIAball’s pitch-deck scrutiny with current enforcement thresholds and methodological change, not previously archived.","evidence":"CSC PDF memo (2026-06-23): three pillars; one-pillar clearance rule; July 1 threshold change with examples; quarterly batching; prediction-interval language; agent consulting enforcement note.","architectureImplications":"Interpretation: local NIL systems should flag aggregate Associated totals toward $50k and store pillar-relevant evidence for holistic tests when RoC fails.","governanceImplications":"Interpretation: update athlete/agent guidance for the new low-dollar exemption and expectation of periodic model batch changes.","securityPrivacyImplications":"Interpretation: aggregate deal ledgers used to trigger RoC review are sensitive financial records—access tightly and retain per policy.","caveats":"Does not publish weights or fairness audits; prediction-interval details limited; not an independent evaluation of model bias.","streamIds":["college-athletics"],"roles":{"sales":"Open with compliance teams rewriting NIL Go playbooks after CSC’s July 2026 RoC threshold and prediction-interval updates—this memo is authoritative process change for every DI program, not a vendor AI product pitch.
