Dana O Niel at ESPN continues to track the recruiting business with update article on coming changes to the rules--even a TC quote in there:

Been brewing for a long time, changes should be coming.
So, the Gerald P.Boyle thread gets 2100 views and 41 posts while this thread gets 158 views and one reply. That doesn't speak well for basketball savvy-ness of this board.
The best change may be reducing the July period to just 9 days...better allowing head coaches/coaching staff to hang around more for arrival of the new freshmen, aclimating them to campus, and cutting down on early frosh year disenchantment/transfers.
I've heard that now the complaint is they barely get to say hello, before they're off for extended intense July recruiting, and exhausted on the return.
