Boosters:
Inducements are illegal. Money, cars, gifts,
family housing, hell, a free taco lunch to talk about your son’s athletic
future is off the table when it comes to boosters and the recruiting of
prospective student-athletes. And pretty
much every program has a “Buddy Garrity” somewhere close by.
Under NCAA bylaws, boosters are prohibited from
recruiting high school athletes both before and after a National Letter of
Intent is signed. And any recruiting
violation by a booster is attributed to the school.
And
the NCAA bylaws are unforgiving - under § 13.02.14.1, once an individual or
entity is classified as a university’s “representative of athletic interests,”
aka “booster,” they are considered a booster for life! There is no coming back from Boosterville.
