RE: NTR - Agent Asks Zion To Admit They Were Paid To Go To Duke
The reason why they are asking him to make the admission isn't discussed in this article. The standard agent contract has to have a clause in it warning the prospect that signing the contract will make them ineligible to return to school. This was not stated in Prime's contract and is apparently the out that Zion and CAA used. Prior to signing with CAA, Zion hinted about maybe returning to Duke, which was obviously a stunt to show that he hadn't made up his mind, which would void the contract with Prime.
The reason why they are asking him to admit it, is that if he admits that he received improper benefits, it means that he was ineligible when he was at Duke, and having the clause was therefore irrelevant.
So since there are massive financial considerations at stake, one of 4 things will happen.
1. He will be forced to lie in court under oath
2. He will be forced to admit that his family received illegal benefits
3. He will be forced to make a HUGE payout to Prime with an NDA
4. He will be forced to honour his contract with Prime, who will in turn drop the lawsuit
Obviously, 1 and 2 would be the most fun.
