Coach Taylor – In the Recruiting Rules Guide you sent last week, it made no mention about emails.  Are there restrictions on emails from college coaches?

For most sports, DI coaches can reply or initiate emails/letters on or after Sept. 1st of the prospects junior year. Before this date they can only receive admission information, camp information and questionnaires.

For most sports, DI coaches can return a call or initiate a call on or after July 1st after the prospects junior year.
