The Seminoles have included what those agents describe as aggressive language in their rev share contracts, which cover a broad range of issues and are issued directly by the school.

One clause, which CBS Sports has seen a copy of, allows the team to extend a player at the end of their contract unilaterally without having to negotiate with the player. Another section on team rules -- common in most NIL or rev share deals -- includes a maximum $2,500 fine on the first offense if a player loses team equipment such as a pair of cleats. The max fine for using a controlled substance for the first time is $1,000.

There's another clause about things that would constitute a breach of contract. Among them is "illness or injury which is serious enough to affect the value of rights granted to the school." The way it's written allows Florida State to renegotiate or even cancel a player's contract at its discretion after any sort of injury -- among other potential liquidated damages provisions included as part of the contract -- including those that happen on the football field.

There's also a provision that, depending on how it's interpreted, could limit an athlete's right to counsel during any future negotiations.
 
there needs to be some structure to everyone being on 1 year contracts, but I am not sure if this is it.

Let them do what they want but don’t be surprised when it’s used as a negative recruiting tactic

“Why you gonna go to a school that will take your money away because you got hurt in practice? We don’t do that…”

Schools still think like this is 5-10 years ago and they had all the power over these kids need to wake up.. they can transfer as they please and lying to them or using them will leave a mark that will be spread to future recruits
