The NCAA is caving to the major backlash.
But, it's all over now ... 'cause the NCAA is amending the rule to coincide with the NBPA's criteria.
"We have been made aware of several current agents who have appropriately represented former student-athletes in their professional quest and whom the National Basketball Players Association has granted waivers of its bachelor’s degree requirement," the NCAA said in a statement ... while insisting it wasn't singling out Paul.
"While specific individuals were not considered when developing our process, we respect the NBPA’s determination of qualification and have amended our certification criteria." The new requirement states that an agent must"Have a bachelor’s degree and/or are currently certified and in good standing with the NBPA."
