Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! We are in the Dead Period... I asked about this today and contact can be made by the coaches as well but no in-person visits. Edit: NCAA Definition...Dead Period ...not permissible to make in-person recruiting contacts or evaluations on- or off-campus or permit official or unofficial visits. http://www.ncaa.org/eligibility/faqs/faqs_recruiting.html
Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! More info... The contact period ended Jan 31st and the Dead Period is from Feb 2nd-5th.
Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! The 2nd through the 5th is a dead period. They can only contact the recruits once a week during a dead period.
Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! hmmmm...why do I remember something about 48 hours prior to the start of signing day there was a special dead period with zero contact allowed. I may be wrong or it could have been changed some years ago.
Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! There are no restrictions of the number of calls or letter sent during the dead period.
Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! What a bunch of convoluted fugged up rules. The only time I ever looked at the NCAA recruiting calendar I needed a slide rule to figure it out.
Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! You sure? I thought it was once a week for most of the year anyways. edit: NCAA Handbook, page 22. (pdf)
Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! Thanks I was going through the material on other sites. College coaches can call once a week but I think that means each coach on staff gets one call to the recruit per week. Or was it they could call the recruit once and could call each parent and coach once as well?:huh:
Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! I hope the title of this thread gets a modification. It is totally misleading and unsubstantiated:cuss:
Re: Sentimore decommitts alabama committs lsu!! Easy does it buddy(cajun sensation). Unless one of my other personalities is messing with you, I posted a the link with a caution it could be a rumor. I checked the link and by golly it works. Got it to work with the browsers explorer and safari. You may get the link to open by tighten up the lose nut behind your keyboard. Below is the text if you can't get it to work. LSU closes in on Sentimore LSU News "Written by Ken Trahan Monday, 02 February 2009 08:32 Two different sources tell NewOrleans.Com Sports that Destrehan blue-chip defensive lineman Darrington Sentimore has decided to de-commit from Alabama to attend LSU. As we reported first this past Friday morning, Sentimore visited LSU this past weekend. The visit went extremely well. Sentimore has told contacts close to the recruiting process that he now intends to attend LSU. Sentimore had committed to Alabama on October 5. He visited Alabama on January 16. LSU shied away from recruiting Sentimore initially over concerns about eligibility. While those concerns still exist, it is more likely that Sentimore will qualify now. The 6'3, 265 pound Sentimore runs in the 4.7 range in the forty. He helped lead Destrehan to 29 consecutive victories and back-to-back 5A Louisiana state championships. He is now likely to soon be playing for a school named Louisiana State."
