Swinney calls proposed NCAA bylaw ‘stupid’
Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney was not happy with a proposed NCAA bylaw titled “Individual Associated With a Recruited Prospective-Athlete.”
The proposed bylaw will be considered at the NCAA Division I Council meeting starting on April 13. The proposed bylaw states, “In football, an institution or staff member shall not employ (either on a volunteer or paid basis) an individual associated with a recruited prospective student-athlete at the institution’s camp or clinic (including a coaches clinic or a camp or clinic involving non-prospects), unless at least two years (24 months) have elapsed since the prospective student-athlete’s initial full-time enrollment at the institution.”
