Please take the time to read this article to learn what the rules are concerning contact with prospective student-athletes http://www.ukathletics.com/genrel/072806aao.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. The University of Kentucky had to report a similar violation because of improper interaction between boosters and prospective student-athletes.
Additional information can be found in WSU's Boosters Guide: http://admin.xosn.com/fls/8600/Complian" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ... EM_ID=8600
If you have any questions regarding what is and isn't permissible under NCAA rules, please feel free to contact WSU Athletics.
Are you a booster?
You are if you have participated as a member of an agency or organization which promotes an institution's intercollegiate athletics program.
You are if you have made financial contributions to the athletics department or to an athletics booster organization of that institution.
You are if you have assisted in providing benefits (e.g.., summer jobs) to enrolled student-athletes or their families.
You are if you have been involved in otherwise promoting an institution's athletics.
Things boosters MAY NOT do:
Have face-to-face contact with recruits or their parents, legal guardian(s), or relatives to encourage them to enroll at an institution.
Telephone or write to recruits or their parents, legal guardian(s), or relatives to encourage them to enroll at an institution.
Contact a recruit's counselor, principal, or coach in an attempt to evaluate the recruit.
Things boosters MAY do:
Once a recruit has signed a National Letter of Intent, a booster may have contact with the recruit to discuss summer job arrangements.
Speak to a recruit via telephone only if the recruit initiates the conversation and the call is not for recruiting purposes. A recruit's question about athletics must be referred to the athletics department.
Watch a recruit's athletics contest on his or her own initiative, but the booster still may not have contact with the recruit.
