That absolutely would break NCAA rules unless the family that gave him the tickets knew him before age 14 (I think that's the age).
That is still a violation of impermissible gifts and if that happened, the recruit could be forbidden to play at that university. A booster cannot give a recruit or his family anything of monetary value unless there is a prior relationship with the recruit or family before any recruiting started.
You either can't be that dumb, or you need to read up on some of the NCAA Rules.
But then that doesn't fit your narrative of always bashing the University, football, basketball, and/or baseball teams.
This is the first site I saw that laid out the school's requirement on allowing free admission to the school's sporting events.
"The only expenses that NCAA rules allow ASU to provide a prospective student-athlete on an unofficial visit are three complimentary admissions to a home athletics contest through the use of a pass list (not hard tickets). Those admissions are for the exclusive use of the prospective student-athlete and those accompanying the prospective student-athlete on the visit. Please note that in all sports except basketball and football, an individual cannot make an unofficial visit to any NCAA Division I institution until September 1 of his or her junior year in high school."

My narrative is bashing the downright foolishness and stupidity my university shows when it comes to athletics. Some of us are sick and tired of being the butt of jokes because we can't do simple basic things that other big time programs handle on a daily basis. We might have a $100 million athletic department but the thing is run like a lemonade stand by the neighborhood children. You can continue to dismiss this stuff offhand but when you can't do the little things, the simple things, don't expect big things to come. The PR damage we inflict on ourselves is far worse than any NCAA violation we could dream of. We are running out of feet to shoot ourselves in.
The problem here is the recruit is also supposed to know the rules....they are given classes, pamphlets, etc. on the rules. There is a reason for the pass list instead of simply handing them hard tickets. You have to do a couple of backflips in order to blame the school for this one.
Again, whether it's the schools fault or not it's the perception of the situation. It looks bad. I also wonder why they didn't tell him he could buy a ticket at the window because they had plenty for sale and they aren't exactly expensive.
You actually believe he went up to a ticket window and they didn't tell him he could purchase a ticket? When has that ever happened? When I go up to the window and ask for X number of tickets, they tell me that will be X dollars.
Have you dealt with our ticket office lately? My God you talk about pulling teeth! When you get a good one to help, they're really good. However when you get a bad one, oy ve.
True...but the ticket booths at the game are much different than dealing with the ticket office at the athletic department. The ones at the game simply sell the tickets to whoever shows up. If this was an issue with the pass list, I would agree with you.
I think that’s an internal matter that the athletic department should have figured out long ago. A recruit picture ID that is valid for a specific length of time comes to my mind. If that’s not feasible, I’d ask Bruce Pearl. Lol.

If it's a violation, then the NCAA is stupider. Where's the inducement in what I just said? Plus, he's already signed, thus diminishing the inducement..
I always thought a recruit had to be invited and not just show up at the window but that's me. Being recruited isn't a free ticket to any game or it didn't used to be. I wasn't there so who knows but being a potential recruit ain't an any game free card and he most likely knew that.
I do not know about this specific case but if he told them who he was and they did not contact someone that could handle this situation properly...then yes USC once again screwed up.
Think about the crap we have witnessed over the coarse of our lives with this program. We are the only school I ever herd of that let their coach live 500 miles away in the off season. We are the only school that would stand by and watch as the coach promoted his son and gave him responsibilities everyone in the state knew he could not handle. We are the only school that seems to give contract extension to every coach not because it is deserved but because it would make firing them harder and less economically feasible to do so. Seen it many times with Horn, Odom and others.....Chad.
I once was a member of the Gamecock Club but my little bit of money was more important to me and could be spent in much better ways than what the people that run our athletic programs are able to do with it. Does not matter the time or the peoples names....it is always the same crap/

I looked this over. I think it comes down to this: provided the young man had not previously used his three permissible event admissions allowed on unofficial visits, and had the table or booth at the designated gate been in operation, and had his name been affixed to the pass list, he could have been admitted at any time during the contest.
If he didn't make prior arrangements, that's on him. If he did make them, and the table was taken down before he arrived, that might be a different matter.
The specific circumstances would have to be known for a judgment to be reached.
The damage connected with this incident might be mitigated anyway by the young man not wanting to play for Martin's successor.
Go back and read the final sentence I added as you were posting. See if you agree with that.
....or he may prefer to play for Martin's successor. LOL.Go back and read the final sentence I added as you were posting. See if you agree with that.
bullcrap, you dont know what clemson or anybody else would do in this situation....this was not tanner or martins fault....yall just wanna find a way to complain about frank and tanner
All I'm complaining about is losing to Clemson in the big 3 men's sports. To me that's worth complaining about.
So much fun reading the comments by the cliff jumpers on this thread only to be properly taken to school by facts on admission procedures, even more fun is watching them still try to justify how they are right ! hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
