Updated Information Regarding Penn State Football Transfers/Clarification Regarding Off-Campus Recruiting

The NCAA has released an updated article regarding the application of rules related to Penn State University football student-athletes who wish to transfer due to the sanctions that have been imposed.

Clarification Regarding Suspension of Off-Campus Recruiting Rules due to Penn State Sanctions:

The suspension of the off-campus and telephone recruiting rules affects only the timing and frequency aspects of those rules. It does not affect other areas of the legislation. For example, there is no change to the limit on the number of coaches who may contact or evaluate prospective student-athletes off campus at any one time. Therefore, through August 26, the permissible number of off-campus recruiters at any one time is seven. In addition, under these circumstances, the exception in Bylaw 11.7.4.3.2 does not apply.

As a reminder, student-athletes may receive medical treatment and attend academic appointments on a required day off. These activities do not count toward daily or weekly hour limits (CARA).

Reminder: Student-athletes may not receive payment from any source for his/her complimentary admissions and may not exchange or assign them for any item of value. Also, family members and friends who have been assigned tickets may not sell or exchange them either!

With the NFL season kicking off this week, remember that all sports wagering activities are prohibited for all student-athletes and UGA Athletics Staff. This includes fantasy football, survivor pools, etc.
