Villanova university for basketball RECRUITING VIOLATIONS

 

The committee was "concerned that the institution's men's basketball staff attempted to use every available opportunity to show prospects that there is a close NBA connection to the institution. " The committee noted that it "is permissible for institution to compete in professional team venues, but it is not permissible to use professional coaches in any fashion for recruiting purposes."

The committee also found that, during that same weekend in October 2001, the institution's men's basketball coaching staff was involved in:

  • Making impermissible in-person contacts with a prospective student-athlete at the home of the head coach;

  • Permitting or arranging contact between a prospect and several representatives of the institution's athletics interests at a men's basketball alumni reception;

  • Publicizing the unofficial visits of 2 prospective student-athletes;

  • Making impermissible recruiting contacts with prospects and parents at a local hotel, a local restaurant and an NBA practice facility;

  • Arranging impermissible local transportation for prospective student-athletes;

  • Providing and arranging entertainment for a prospective student-athlete through men's basketball student-athletes; and

  • Arranging for student-athletes to engage in impermissible recruiting contacts with prospective student-athletes.

The committee also found that members of the men's basketball coaching staff permitted student-athletes to engage in impermissible recruiting activities, including permitting them to: participate in phone calls placed to a prospect from the coaches' offices; send correspondence to a prospect at the institution's expense; and engage in a recruiting contact with a prospective student-athlete at the site of the prospect's summer league game.

The committee also found that, from August 2001 through March 2003, nineteen different student-athletes in 5 different sports used an college phone access code to place free local and long-distance telephone calls totaling in excess of $5,800. The violations resulted in numerous student-athletes having to be withheld from multiple contests to reinstate their eligibility.
