We have a project with human subjects, including both men's and women's
track teams.   The coach has provided a section from the NCAA rules
(Rule 12.5.1.6) as evidence that the track members may not receive
directly any payments for serving as human subjects.  Instead, he has
requested that we transfer an equivalent amount to each team account.
The rule that he cites appears to not fit human subjects activities.

Does anyone have experience with this and know what we can/cannot do?
We have not had this situation arise before and don't have much human
subject experience here, having no medical school.

Any guidance would be appreciated!
