Question:
Do we need permission to contact all college prospects?
Answer:
For four-year college prospects, we need permission to contact per 13.1.1.3:
An athletics staff member or other representative of the institution's athletics interests shall not make contact with the student-athlete of another NCAA or NAIA four-year collegiate institution, directly or indirectly, without first obtaining the written permission of the first institution's athletics director (or an athletics administrator designated by the athletics director) to do so, regardless of who makes the initial contact. If permission is not granted, the second institution shall not encourage the transfer and the institution shall not provide athletically related financial assistance to the student-athlete until the student-athlete has attended the second institution for one academic year. If permission is granted to contact the student-athlete, all applicable NCAA recruiting rules apply.
For two-year college prospects, we don't need permission to contact per 13.1.1.2, but you may not contact a nonqualifier who is currently enrolled in his/her first year at a two-year college:
A prospect who was not a qualifier as defined in Bylaw 14.02.9.1 and who is enrolled in the first year of a two-year college may not be contacted in person on or off an institution's campus for recruiting purposes by a member institution.
