Yes there are. And there are some fairly simple (and probing) questions a parent can ask...and get responses too (in writing) that make it clear what that coach's and that school's policy and practice are on this issue.

I find that most (we have dealt with...which is a fairly large number across two sons) are required by their athletic department and administration to behave in the 'better' way. The ones that aren't...are fairly easy to unearth...either through their answers or a little research.

Having just returned from son #2's official visit to his future school and talking to parents of other 'commits,' I'd say the other parents have done a good job of unearthing the same schools that we did.
