Report: Georgia football, basketball faced recruiting restrictions due to NCAA secondary violations
The University of Georgia football and basketball staffs were each limited in their recruiting contacts for a week due to separate NCAA secondary violations, according to the Athens Banner-Herald’s Marc Weiszer.
An unnamed football coach had an impermissible phone call to a recruit outside the contact period on February 20, and the unidentified coach received an 11-day ban from receiving calls or texting recruits.
Furthermore, the entire football staff couldn’t call any recruits for a week.
With respect to basketball, an assistant committed a violation due to public communication on social media with a recruit on April 28. The unnamed coach couldn’t have any contact with recruits for 2 weeks, and the basketball staff couldn’t have any written or electronic communication with recruits for a week.

All total, UGA reported 5 Level III secondary violations. The other 3 belonged to soccer (2) and golf (1).
So the way this reads the unnamed football coach can still email recruits, just cant talk or text using a phone, and the unnamed basketball coach can write texts or emails but can still call recruits and verbally communicate.
So why are the coaches not named? Is it some big NCAA mystery? Put the cheaters names out there for everyone to see! Isn’t that how it works everywhere else?
Quite often these violations are a result of mistake or error, rather than cheating.
Careful, boxster. Don’t let likelihoods interfere with the tn fan’s attempted narrative. They have to grasp for insinuated victories where they can…..cause they aren’t getting them on the field.
Ricker You are one of the many bitter,angry Georgia fans who just cannot shut up.
The unnamed coach has reportedly been observed to have trouble walking.
It is assumed that Kirby Smart broke his foot off in the unnamed coach’s a$$.
Ole Timmy boy would be all over this if it was about Bama. I mean he lived on the Bama article about secondary violations but is strangely absent when it involves UGA…
An entire week?
This is outrageous!
Agreed, shoulda been as severe as punching a woman, one game suspension. 7 days seems extreme
