Questions and Discussions Regarding the College Recruiting process

by eightballk » Thu Jan 04, 2018 8:50 am

As many of you may know - the D1 coaches have voted to alter the age at which coach/player discussion may commence. I believe it will follow baseball (16yrs) and at that point, permit direct coach/player communication such that the club team coach will not govern interaction. These changes are likely to pass. No doubt this will change the character of many showcase(s) this summer. Let the crazy race to the bottom stop.

ps - apologies if I have any of the details wrong. none the less the policy change is likely forthcoming.

D1 coaches did a straw poll - voted 200 - 3 for changes. Then they did a paper vote and 86% voted for.

The NCAA vote will take place on April 18th, and probably take effect that day. They don't want to see a verbal frenzy this summer, which would occur.
