  16. No. A coach or institutional representative cannot be present when a recruit signs a National Letter of Intent off campus. Pursuant to NCAA Bylaw 13.1.6.2, any in-person, off-campus contact made with a prospect for the purpose of signing a National Letter of Intent or attendance at activities related to the signing of the National Letter of Intent is prohibited. However, there is nothing that precludes a recruit from receiving a National Letter of Intent while on campus for an official or unofficial visit. Accordingly, it is strongly suggested that the recruit consults with their parent or legal guardian in this decision-making process.

  17. 4) Does an NLI become null & void?

  18. 5) Can a recruit sign an NLI if they don’t have a parent or legal guardian?

  19. Under specified circumstances. If your parent or legal guardian is not available (incarcerated, death, etc.), it is permissible for another individual to sign the NLI with you. He or she must be approved in advance by the NLI Office before you sign the NLI. In order to gain approval, you should work with the school recruiting you to put together a statement with the following information: (1) Explain why your parent or legal guardian is unable to sign the NLI with you. (2) Include the name and signature of someone (not a coach or athletics administrator) who has agreed to sign with you. (3) Sign the statement yourself. (4) Have the school submit the statement and any supporting documentation to the NLI Office for review and a decision.

  20. ALWAYS ASK BEFORE YOU ACT!
