Are coaches even allowed to initiate contact w/ players or supervise workouts?!

All I could find was this from 2002:
NCAA said:
Summer conditioning will start nine weeks before a school's first permissible preseason practice date. One of the nine weeks would be designated as student-athlete discretionary time. During the other eight weeks, prospects and student-athletes could participate in non-mandatory weight training and conditioning activities conducted by the strength coach for no more than eight hours per week.

from Official Web Site of the NCAA

Sounds non-mandatory to me!

On the other hand from http://www.ncaa.org/releases/divi/2002102201d1.htm:
NCAA said:
  • Summer conditioning can begin nine weeks before the first day of preseason practice but must include one week of discretionary time when there are no mandatory workouts.

sounds like mandatory workouts are permitted now. I'm sure RichRod has every lawyer in Toledo pouring over this right now!

At Big Ten Media Day this afternoon, Rod was asked about his QB situation since he failed to get Pryor and Mallette transferred. He replied that he would only speak of players on his roster. Then, he went on to talk about Chad Henne! :biggrin:

Helwagen asked him about the rivalry. He went on to say they had many big rivalries in ND, MSU, and OSU. He treats them all the same. His players hear enough from the fans to know that those are the big games they must win. It sounded eerily similar to a former OSU coach. :wink2:

Well, after all, he has a point. A game is a game is a game. No reason to get uptight about Ohio State. A game is a game is a game.
