Conference Call No. 13
June 1, 2005

Acting for the Division I Management Council, the Division I Legislative Review/Interpretations Committee issued the following interpretation:

Personnel/Off-Campus Recruiting/At Any One Time

1. Application of the Limitation on the Number of Coaches Who May Engage in Off-Campus Recruiting at Any One Time. The committee confirmed that, pursuant to NCAA Proposal No. 04-132-B, if the limitation on the number of coaches who are permitted to contact or evaluate prospects off campus at any one time is reached, another coach in that same sport may leave campus to engage in off-campus contacts or evaluations at any time, provided he or she does not begin any off-campus recruiting activity until the coach being replaced has completed his or her recruiting activities. Further, the replaced coach may not engage in additional recruiting activities until after he or she has returned to the institution's campus.
