Dear Prospective Student-Athlete: As a prospective student-athlete, you may have the athletic potential to play college basketball at the Division I level. If so, you probably will be exposed to an enormous amount of recruitment activities from universities across the country. Throughout the recruitment process, coaches will reference various NCAA rules and regulations. The rules are designed for various reasons. The most important of which are to ease the pressures on prospective student-athletes and to level the playing field so that all universities operate within the same guidelines. During the recruiting process you may have the following questions: When and how often can I visit an institution's campus? When, where and how often can a coach telephone me? How many times can a coach observe me in practice and/or competition? What academic criteria must I meet to be eligible to play Division I basketball? The answers to these questions and more can be obtained from the University of Miami Compliance Office or the NCAA by requesting the NCAA Guide for the College-Bound Student-Athlete. The guide may be provided to a prospective student-athlete at any time. The guide addresses issues related to Divisions I, II and III academic eligibility, financial aid, recruitment and more. To receive a copy of the guide call the NCAA Hotline at 1-800-638-3731 or request it from the University of Miami coach who is recruiting you. Please remember that since violations of NCAA rules during your recruitment could jeopardize your athletic eligibility, it is important for you and your parents to be informed and to ask questions throughout the recruiting process. Best of luck and GO CANES! Sincerely,

David Reed Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance
