4. In the news… At the recommendation of the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA), the Division I and Division II Committees on Infractions have agreed to support the imposition of enhanced penalties by the enforcement staff, including game suspensions of coaches, for some specified secondary violations of NCAA football recruiting legislation. The AFCA identified numerous types of violations that should result in enhanced penalties, including, but not limited to: Communication violations (e.g., phone call and text message violations); impermissible contacts/evaluations; impermissible recruiters; provision of benefits to individuals associated with prospects; exceeding coaching staff limitations; and use of impermissible recruiting aids and game-day simulations. As a result, penalties for football recruiting violations could now result in significant recruiting restrictions, as well as suspension of coaching-related activities for one or more contests, among other penalties. The enforcement staff already provides such enhanced penalties for some Division I men's basketball recruiting violations, as approved by the Division I Board of Directors last October.

11. Questions & Interpretations What can I do with old uniforms? (May 11, 1990) To be able to give old apparel items (warm-ups, uniforms) to student-athletes prior to the end of their college participation, the items must not be reusable (normal wear through practice/competition from team members in prior seasons). At the discretion of the institution, the apparel may be considered property of the S/A and may not be sold by the S/A. 16.11.1.6- A S/A may retain athletics apparel items (not equipment) at the end of the individual’s intercollegiate participation.

Questions & Interpretations PSA Observing Practice & Meetings (July 15, 2010) A PSA is permitted to observe practices and meetings until the date on which he or she has signed a NLI, a written offer of admission or financial aid or has made a financial deposit with the institution. After that date, the PSA is permitted to observe the institution’s practices and meetings only in the same manner as the general public.
