  • "A reduction of the football squad size by 10 for four years, starting with the 2022-23 academic year."
That'll teach 'em! Reducing the squad size from 110 to 100 will only mean that 10 guys per year won't be able to say they played football at Air Force. It won't affect scholarship players at all.

The show cause orders may be more interesting, though. Guys could be losing their jobs.

Air Force does not have scholarship players. No one pays at Air Force other than a 5 year graduation commitment. Not sure what a recruiting violation is for Air Force other than too many or wrong timed visits or contact with Academy coaches. All potential cadets are normally contacted by liaison officers. I believe the athletic department is sensitive that liaison officers do not contact recruited athletes because it could go against the number and timing of contacts which would restrict the contact by the athletic department or result in a violation.

Good point. I forgot about the free education there. When I worked in college admissions, we usually had one person in the office who was the athletic liaison, just to avoid what you described. Typically, the liaison was there only to ensure that the athletes were submitting their documents on time, and met admission standards. It also gave parents one point of contact in admissions to get the specific information they needed.

I graduated from Air Force. While I didnā€™t pay money, I definitely paid for that education. šŸ˜…

Ideal orchestration...A&M way

1. Jimbo Fisher gets his recruiting target list and starts his calls to recruits...NO NIL references in his pitch to recruits.

2. Jimbo releases his recruiting target list to his A&M cashbox NIL group.

3. A&M NIL group independently reaches out to A&M recruit targets with handsome offers

4. A&M lands the #1 recruiting class

A&M staff never "enticed"...

Or altenatively,

1. Prospect in town for state basketball tournament, attends practice of college team recruiting him.

2. Coach takes him to breakfast after practice.

3. Coach drives him to HS team's hotel after breakfast.

4. Coach sends picture of prospect with team from practice, signed by "The Fellas."

5. Events 1-4 held to be such a threat to the sanctity of college sports, that NCAA issues a "Lack of Institutional Control" order against University.
