The answer is: they don't. I don't know your case in question (though the NCAA office is in Indianapolis, if you want to report it). Players are carefully screened and guided - down to they can't even have an agent until they're pro, or they're declared ineligible.

The NCAA exists for a reason - to ensure that these ball players etc. (who maybe think they are the hottest thing in the world in their local area) don't overlook the fact that they might declare pro...and no one will pick them up, and no one can give them a scholarship....so they're out of it, for good.

I've been to NCAA training camps and know how seriously they take this, and for good reason. If you are aware of a violation, please contact the NCAA office with the information you have. It protects the world of sports and the reputations of other players.

MJ is right. There's no way the NCAA is going to sit idly by and allow someone to break their rules. Believe me, they're very anal about this sort of thing. As for your question, you only provided one example of an college baseball player circumventing NCAA rules; are there any other instances you know of?
