'Dead period?' 'Quiet period?' Explaining the NCAA's football recruiting calendar

quote:

From June 25 to July 24, college football recruiting will be in a "Dead Period," one of four classifications of the NCAA's recruiting calendar. Read on to learn more about these terms.

Let's try to clarify, beginning with the various NCAA "periods."

As you'll see, these rules are inefficient. They make it tough for college coaches to evaluate prospects. The following things are limited by the NCAA at various times of the year: prospects visiting a college campus (officially or unofficially), coaches visiting a prospect's school, coaches visiting a prospect's home, written communication, and electronic communication.

Contact period

The most wide-open time. During this time, coaches can visit with prospects and families regardless of location. In-person contact is permitted once per week. Note that a coach cannot visit a school multiple times in one week if it has more than one prospect. Electronic and written communications are also permitted.

This is when tales of coaches praising Mama's cooking are born, during in-home visits.
