A coach is legally responsible for recruits on a visit . If they get in trouble, he is in bigger trouble !

When visiting a Div 1 school (plus assuming other NCAA divisions) before the OV, the player has to sign a statment regarding rules, one of which being that no alcohol will be consumed (on campus) and then signed by the parent. I don't remember the exact letter, anyone?

It then takes the coach off the hook.

I am with HVbaseballDAD, give the kids a break.

BHD, you are so very lucky that your son is obviously so perfect.

I don't get the purpose of coming here and calling players out. No one is agreeing it is right, rather that this does happen.

However, I also agree with Antzdad, never say never.
