re: LSU slapped with recruiting sanctions after prospect backs out of commitment

The rule was very specific of the ramifications if the kid changed his mind and went elsewhere. That part is on the coaches. They knew the kid was flip flopping and still contacted him outside the rules. Don't blame them but they knew the rule and broke it

That said, I told people when the rule changed that it was a dangerous thing to allow kids to sign those things and use the lax contact rules. These days none if these kids are completely trustworthy so I wouldn't sign the thing. Its at no advantage to the school. All the power in the hands of the kids and that's dangerous.

Stupid rule that makes absolutely no sense. Because of the penalties they shouldn't allow the kids to sign but one but no they allow the kids to sign multiple. Just idiotic.

Now I'm waiting to see who else violated the rule because there has to be more. Many kids signed multiple agreements with multiple schools and since they can only enroll at one there has to be other violators. Let's see who else is honest and self reported.

For clarification because its confusing, does the 2 year ban on financial aid agreements, does that mean we can't have early enrollees for 2 years? Those kids don't sign LOIs usually. Only financial aid agreements. That would be the most costly penalty. The 21 eval days are harsh as it is.
