Pretty sure it was James Mauro of L.D. Bell. They had another guy with them — not sure who it was, but I'm guessing it might have been LDB's running back, Kenneth Farrow. Looked a little like his pictures, anyway.

Stallion: I would like your opinion on these messages. If this were an assistant at another team, I would seriously question whether a note like this rises to the level of a secondary recruiting violation. You can confidently say who the recruit is. How is this not a violation?

Have you seen Lauren's new show Parenthood on NBC?

[Stallion]

I don't know the rule specifically-I've wondered the same thing.

[SMUfiji43]

It's a violation to say who is visiting/has visited campus? Call me ignorant, but that seems pretty dumb.

[TheBestAvailable]

He didn't use any names. Therefore how is there a violation?

Those of us that do not follow recruiting as close as others have no idea of whom he is referring. And especially those of us not in the metroplex. Maybe a fine line but I do not see a problem.

Problem is that he provides fairly unmistakeable identifiers ( height, position, residence area) that can easily be matched up with a known and targeted recruit. A similar analogy is a poster on this board from Arkansas who played football for SMU and who cowers and quivers when his wife speaks. A poster who was recently given special dispensation to attend the Navy game by his wife only on the condition that the trip coincides with her touring WDC historical sites. Who is this mystery subserviant poster????

I think its funny that the NCAA tried to limit coverage of recruiting by the schools themselves and now private media sources are making millions off the information which the schools have. Lost a big revenue source there. They should have handled it like the NFL does by licensing its own product. Really, I know the argument against that-its unfair to the little schools- but in reality Rivals, Scout, ESPN have simply sidestepped the rules and the same information gets out anyway.

You make my point perfectly. That description sounds very familiar, but it cannot be me because my wife has no interest at all in WDC, but rather Civil War sites. So there can always be a close but not exact reference.

How big is the metroplex if it includes east of Dallas their is a big QB at Pittsburg that has better stats than the Bell QB also a big QB at Flower Mound that has outstanding stats. Who was the QB?????

I thought there was an NCAA rule against commenting on recruits to the public. I recall clearly Coach K being interviewed years ago on the radio and being asked about LeBron as a HS Senior and sidestepping the question specifically because Lebron hadn't officially declared for the draft and at some point indicated that Duke would have been on his list of schools if he went to college.

This post isn't the best example, but some of these facebook updates from coach are a little more generous and suggest what a player could do for a program.

I think the key is using names.
