Major rule changes expected for July live recruiting period
- Thread starter cmgoods
- Start date
...drastic changes to the summer live period that will include barring coaches from attending AAU tournaments and shoe company sponsored events in July, sources told NBC Sports.
In the place of AAU tournaments, the NABC is planning on recommending that the NCAA fund four regional camps that coaches are allowed to attend. The camps will be staggered to allow staffs to attend each of them, a source told NBC Sports, and the expectation is that the coaching staffs will be able to nominate as many as 35 players be allowed to attend.
They've got to do something. This would be a seismic shift. Would signal that the FBI investigation has everyone close to panic mode if this radical of a change happens.

The very fact that this is being floated at the NCAA level means people are in full panic mode. Going to be tough to get the AAU and shoes companies out of the game now that they've let them in though.
Even if they can get the kids into an environment which isn't fully controlled by the shoe companies for July you still have the AAU stuff going on the rest of the year.
The bigger issue is that a lot of these coaches have big contracts with these shoe companies, some how and some way the companies will use that money to influence the process.
Unless some coaches go to jail they won't get the influence of the money out of the system.

That is a necessary, but not sufficient condition for real change.
I don't know what would be sufficient, but I'm pretty sure even coaches going to jail wouldn't be enough to prompt real change.
There will always be some willing to cheat but if they see some of their peers wearing PJs and flip-flops a lot of them will think twice. Right now very few worry about the rules because they have no fear or respect for the ability or willingness of the NCAA to enforce them

The NCAA will then just make it against the rules or any coaches to attend these events any time of year.

I wish this would destroy the NCAA. They have failed and cater to the blue blood programs that feed their coffers. **** Em

This obviously has huge ramifications to the game. It'll be interesting to see what the final rule is and when it will take effect.

Not quite. MLB teams don't keep the rights to a player when he attends college. If a player chooses college, it's a wasted draft pick.
