They choose (volunteer) to compete for the non-profit organization's amateur-only teams. No one's forcing them to do that. They OPT IN for it, and they can OPT OUT at any time to go pro and sign all the endorsement deals they want. They can even attend college while doing so.

So to answer your question: The NCAA isn't prohibiting outside income. It's setting rules for *volunteer* participation in its non-profit amateur-only sporting events.
