Mikey 16,716 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Signing those FAA papers is a nice gesture, but it does not bind the player to the school. It's not like signing the LOI in February. These EE guys aren't required to go anywhere until they walk into a classroom in January. Once they are taking classes, then and only then are they officially "done with recruiting". As said in another thread, it does allow for AU to have unlimited contact during the dead period. True. Another side to it is that they can sign those papers with as many schools as they want to. So if say, five schools are really after a guy he can sign FAA papers with all five and we're back to square one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. If the guy signs FAA papers, and the school has contact with them throughout the dead period, but the player never signs with that school, the school can still be hit with recruiting violations. I remember LSU got hit with that situation recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronMan70 3,277 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 With the way the NCAA is interpreting the rule a school needs to make sure a player is 110% before they let him sign the papers. If a player has ANY doubt at all, even 1%, he is really doing the school a disservice signing those FAA papers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a player has ANY doubt at all, even 1%, he is really doing the school a disservice signing those FAA papers. It's about the only situation in all of recruiting where a player gets to hold the cards, except for the top 1% of the top 1%. Once they sign an NLI, the schools own them and can do with them what they please. Unless, of course, they want to lose a year of eligibility and roll the dice on taking one more shot at a different school who will also do with them what they please, if another school will take them. TL;DR- That's probably something like what it feels like to be a student athlete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the above scenario, one school gets the player and the other four get hit with violations if they contacted him, but that doesn't make my statement wrong.

I was just saying that five schools cannot seek FAA agreements from one player in order for all five to have unlimited contact because four schools, the schools that were spurned by the player, will be violating the letter of the law.

They won't be violating any law until he doesn't go to their school. After he chooses one the other four are in trouble. Funny law: legal while you are doing it, but it becomes a violation after the fact. Be that as it may, he can sign FAA papers with multiple schools. The schools better be close to 100% certain about what they are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randman5000 4,232 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Come on. Sign those papers Should we be concerned that Eason reaffirmed? Good question but imo the defense should be concerned about Eason. I think Davis still ends up with us. Its impressive that Gus can end up with back to back top ten classes after 8-5 and 6-6 seasons.
