The "no girlfriend" policy stands out as very strange.
If true, that is really weird. I get that it may present a distraction, but then so are many other things that college age kids get into.
If a player takes care of his team responsibilities, his grades, and isn't involved in anything illegal - I don't see why a coach would care about anything else.
Realistically a coach having a "no girlfriends" rule is just asking his players to lie to him.

And given the hormone's of a college player, I would say it could almost indirectly encourage risky behavior and party hook ups. Now your possibly entering accusations of inappropriate contact or sexual assault claims into the equation. It may be a little far fetched but I could see it as an easy jump.
