allen, are these e-mails or something? At any rate, please keep your recruiting low key. In other words, discrete... We don't need the NCAA police after us.

alleninxis (and everyone else),
FYI, a copy of some pertinent rules from HS.com:
NCAA Reminder
And, while you all should know this already, a friendly reminder from the NCAA:
"It is against NCAA regulations for a representative of an institution's athletic interests to have any contact with a prospective student-athlete. Such prohibitions include telephone calls, letters, e-mails and in-person contact. Any violation of these regulations causes potentially severe penalties, such as the prospect being prohibited to participate in athletics at that institution and additional penalties against the institution (i.e., loss of scholarships, television ban, etc.).
"Any individual who is an alumnus, benefactor, season ticket holder or simply a fan of the athletics programs at Georgetown University is considered a representative of their athletics interests and is subject to these restrictions.
"The only individuals who are permitted to contact prospective student-athletes about their interest in attending Georgetown University are certified institutional staff members, such as coaches, athletics administrators or other University officials.
"Please note that according to NCAA regulations an individual is considered a prospective student-athlete until the day they enroll at the institution or report for the first day of preseason practice. Therefore, the above restrictions are applicable until that time. In addition, if a prospective student-athlete signs a Letter-of-Intent to attend Georgetown University, an institution's athletics representative is not permitted to call that prospect and congratulate them on their signing - this is also a violation and could jeopardize the prospect's eligibility."
NOTE: By submitting an e-mail and/or participating on the boards, I agree to the rules of this page (including the NCAA advisory above) and to abide by same. I understand that abuse of these rules will subject me to any or all of the sanctions indicated above, including the loss of password privileges on the board. All posts submitted are at the sole discretion of the board moderators for approval and may be deleted (as cited above) with or without prior notice.
Please keep these rules in mind as you use the Message Board. Thanks for your cooperation.....WBH

I think those sites obtain press passes/credentials from the schools they cover. Carlos over on HR.com would certainly know as he has done the same with GU.
DFW and we admins just want to be sure that we're not crossing the line here (we don't "cover" the team in the same way with official press credentials). GU has historically run its men's bball program to the letter with the NCAA and, as representatives of an "on-line" fan base, we don't want to run afoul of any regulations....check your IM as well, alleninxis....

They are allowed to talk to them and ask objective questions. However, they can't be hyping the school or anything like that.
There is a very fine line and you have to be careful about it. I remember hearing about violations like this by one of those guys who was contacting recruits and also encouraging them to attend his favorite school while interviewing them.

I think it was a Kentucky site. I remember the guy who ran it got banned from attending home games for life or something. Pretty harsh considering he was a diehard Wildcat fan (and Wildcat fans are nuts). |
