Then an article popped up about South Carolina compliance looking into it...
The University of South Carolina's athletic department is looking into whether star defensive end Jadeveon Clowney has been in contact with agent JAY Z.
Such contact could constitute an NCAA violation, which could jeopardize Clowney's eligibility with the Gamecocks, depending on the circumstances of the contact. NCAA rules prohibit players accepting cash or things of value from agents before their eligibility has expired.
South Carolina Assistant Director of Athletics for Media Relations Steve Fink confirmed that the matter is being checked out by the Gamecocks' compliance office, calling it "standard operating procedure" in an email to NFL Draft 365. Compliance officers are charged with making sure coaches and players are cognizant of NCAA rules, and investigating any potential violations.
