violation of this article. In an action brought pursuant to this
section, the court may award reasonable attorney's fees to a prevailing
plaintiff.

of this article or was penalized, disqualified or suspended from
participation in athletics by a national association for the promotion
and regulation of athletics, by an athletic conference, or by reasonable
self-imposed disciplinary action taken to mitigate sanctions likely to
be imposed by such an organization.

3. A right of action under this section shall not accrue until the
educational institution discovers or by the exercise of reasonable
diligence would have discovered the violation by the athlete agent or
former student-athlete.

4. This article shall not be deemed to restrict rights, remedies or
defenses of any person under law or equity.
