Coaches & staff, please remember that school starts back up again next week. Many of you, especially fall sports coaches, will have student-athletes returning to campus who exhausted their eligibility this past fall. Please remember that these student's are still considered student-athletes until the day that they walk across the stage this May.
Therefore, all of the same rules that apply to other student-athletes regarding extra benefits still apply to these students, even though they do not have any remaining eligibility. That means no taking them out for lunch or dinner, no giving them rides across town, home, to the airport or to where ever. They need to be treated the same way as any other student-athlete on campus.
