INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The NCAA has been asking former agent Josh Luchs for his insights about how to police college sports from rogue agents.

Luchs was decertified by the NFL Players Association last week after telling Sports Illustrated that he improperly paid 30 college players from 1990-96.

NCAA spokeswoman Stacey Osburn confirmed Wednesday night that the governing body had spoken with Luchs. In an e-mail to The Associated Press, Osburn writes that the NCAA has had regular conversations with other people to gain a better understanding of the agent landscape.

Representatives from the NCAA, NFL, NFLPA, American Football Coaches Associations and professional agents are discussing ways to persuade agents and players to follow NCAA rules.
