so Kate retreaded a statement we all know Navy made earlier in the weekend, and looked up Johnson's agent's name, called him, and got nothing.

Well alright! Good to know someone has their finger on the pulse of the situation.

Just for grins, can anyone definitively say that SMU needs permission to contact a coach under contract? I have looked and can't find the applicable NCAA rule or even a reference to such a rule from an "official" source. All I have seen is internet speculation that there is such a rule on message boards.

Already read it. Permission is not even mentioned/discussed as a suggestion.

Neither party needs permission to talk through the agent.
