Recruiting violation questions for the experts

Role of Boosters

"Only institutional staff members are permitted to recruit prospective student-athletes. Generally, NCAA rules prohibit anyone else from contacting (calling, writing or in-person contact) prospects or the prospect’s relatives or guardian for recruiting purposes.

1) can LSU get in trouble with no knowledge?

---

Yes, it's called institutional control.

quote:

---

Institutional control of athletics is a fundamental requirement of NCAA legislation. Specifically, the NCAA constitution states that the university must:

"Insure those members of university staff, student-athletes and other individuals or groups representing the university’s athletic interests comply with NCAA rules and regulations. As a member of the NCAA, the university is responsible for the actions of its alumni, supporters and fans."

2) can fan get in trouble and if so how?

---

"If a violation occurs, it may jeopardize a student-athlete’s eligibility for intercollegiate competition, jeopardize a school’s membership status with the NCAA or cause a booster to lose access to all booster benefits."

quote:

---

3) and probably most likely, what kind of consequences would recruit face if any?

---

"If a violation occurs, it may jeopardize a student-athlete’s eligibility for intercollegiate competition, jeopardize a school’s membership status with the NCAA or cause a booster to lose access to all booster benefits."

quote:

---

As a booster, you may not:

. Contact a prospect in-person on-campus or off campus.

.Contact a prospect by telephone, email, Internet or letter.

. Provide transportation for a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or guardian.

. Provide free or reduced-cost tickets for a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or guardian to attend an athletic event.

No prior relationship whatsoever

---

What is said fans relationship with the recruit? Are they family friends for an extended period of time?

---

"Boosters are not precluded from continuing established friendships with families who have prospective student-athletes. However, boosters may not encourage a prospect’s participation in university athletics or provide benefits to prospects that were not previously provided."

Nope, he's playing the long con and will act as an LSU fan, fly Evans out for the game, and then self report the violations at a critical time.

I’m not even sure who the team the OP is a fan of

No, the OP is implying that he will bring Demond Demas to the game, then try to render him ineligible so A&M can't sign him. The entire OP is a troll.

Damn, I'll send AM some prayers.

Spoiler Alert... it’s Tulane

Y’all are missing the fact that nothing he said makes the fan a booster.

If he’s not a booster, school can’t get in trouble for it. You can’t control people with no affiliation.

---

This. As the upper middle class grows and accumulates wealth, it's not far fetched to foresee rich idiots try to act like boosters without a school's blessing. Even for many of us on here, a few thousand dollars isn't what it used to be.

I don't think anything would happen. Hell, they made a movie about a family of Ole Miss fans housing a kid from Tennessee, who ended up going to Ole Miss.

Well I don’t think this is going to help Georgia tomorrow

It will help UGA about as much as OP's "LSU has no pass rush. Fromm has dropped dimes on better defenses" thread over on the SECr.
