Oops dawg secondary violation

Georgia reports two secondary violations to NCAA
By Marc Weiszerupdated Thursday, May 21, 2015 - 12:04pm

The intersection of recruiting, social media and NCAA rules resulted in Georgia reporting two secondary violations since April, including one involving the football program.

Football recruits “were provided pictures which were taken during a campus visit via social media,” on Feb. 21 according to a summary of the violation described in information obtained by an open records request. Georgia held a recruiting junior day on that date.

The bylaw violated was 13.10.2.7 which pertains to photographing prospective student athletes. NCAA rules allow a school to snap a picture of a recruit during a campus visit for use in such things as a media guide but the photo can’t be provided to the recruit.

Georgia’s recruiting office was provided rules education.

The violation reported involving swimming (Georgia didn’t specify if it was men’s or women’s) came after members of the swim team tweeted and retweeted photos of recruits while on a recruiting visit on April 23.

That went against bylaw 13.10.2.4 which reads schools shouldn’t publicize or arrange for publicity of recruits visits to campus. Again, the resulting action was rules education.

Georgia classified both as Level III violations, which are considered isolated and provide no more than a minimal recruiting advantage.

Whether we agree with the law , the law is still the law.
Everyone has that same paperwork.

I agree completely. I just can't believe that's in the law.


May 21, 2015, 8:00 PM

Actually I believe it, I just think it's dumb.

Most laws are. And the people who make them have committed the perfect crime themselves by convincing people that the world would burn if there weren't said laws in place.

Summa cum laude. Magna cum laude. The radio’s too loudy.


Don't we do that too?

the recruit gets their picture taken in a Clemson uniform in the locker room. Maybe the prospect gets the picture and then tweets it out and thats the difference. But I know I've seen pics of prospects while on a visit to Clemson.
