Quote from: Billy Hoyle on Today at 08:35:55 AMThere are unanswered questions as to the ability of international kids to get the revenue share payments post-House: https://frontofficesports.com/house-settlement-international-athletes/

But the House v. NCAA settlement would have schools dole out payments to their entire athletic department—so it's virtually unavoidable for any athlete. The payments could violate the worker regulations of student visa laws whether they're considered NIL agreements or the manifestation of an employee-employer relationship, the attorneys agreed.

Schools face a new challenge, too: Schools paying international athletes could face their own run-ins with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, given that it's illegal to pay workers who are unauthorized to work in the United States.

International Athletes could be granted a J-1 Visa which would them allow to work.

The only other one from 94 to now I could think of is Faisel, and he was born in the USVI, so a citizen.

Dammit. I probably missed one or two others, too.
