Billionaire John Ruiz has been massive in landing key players for the University of Miami sports teams. He is the owner of LifeWallet and has been a key part of Miami's NIL money and he gave former Kansas State guard Nijel Pack a two-year $800,000 deal to join Miami.However, recently, the NIL money from Ruiz has decreased, in not just the football program, but all the other sports programs, too. According to the Miami Herald, Ruiz's LifeWallet is the “target of federal civil and criminal investigations." led by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida, as well as the FBI and IRS agents.Now, after the news came out, many fans took to social media to wonder if the players will lose their eligibility from the NCAA.VOLFAN@GBO700@On3sports @MiamiHerald Imagine if all the players he's funded become ineligible.....@On3sports @MiamiHerald Imagine if all the players he's funded become ineligible....."Imagine if all the players he's funded become ineligible."Cole Merrell@cole_m_12@On3sports @MiamiHerald Running athletic programs thru a fraudulent company is about the most Miami thing I have ever heard602@On3sports @MiamiHerald Running athletic programs thru a fraudulent company is about the most Miami thing I have ever heard"Running athletic programs thru a fraudulent company is about the most Miami thing I have ever heard."Eric Hovland@EricJHovland@On3sports @MiamiHerald I think everyone could see this coming with how shady his businesses were ever before he started throwing money at Miami.1@On3sports @MiamiHerald I think everyone could see this coming with how shady his businesses were ever before he started throwing money at Miami."I think everyone could see this coming with how shady his business were ever before he started throwing money at Miami."Can He Flickett@NeightFSU@On3sports @MiamiHerald This explains the mountain of 3 stars.

Several people have also been interviewed about the possible violations from Ruiz. As of now, whether or not Ruiz did any wrongdoing is uncertain, and whether or not the players he signed will be in trouble is unclear.
