[quote=Anonymous]This First Contact rule isn’t assiduously enforced. If the kid’s father knows the coach, no one is going to complain. What the Conferences are trying to limit is the open and unrestricted pursuit of 8th graders. It’s about the only recruiting rule these conferences have. You have to draw the line somewhere and the schools have agreed to this. If you want to go about getting high schools to be aware of your son or daughter and to maybe help in the Admissions process, the thing to do is to make first contact with the school. There’s all sort of ways to do this. Calling Admissions and asking for an application would be an easy way, but there are lots of other ways. As long as you do this, no one will ever think that any “recruiting” effort isn’t quite legal. These coaches and schools don’t want to seen as skirting the rules. They don’t need the grief.[/quote]
