I asked UGA’s Mark Richt last week about this: What happened to all the fuss from college coaches about kids signing early financial-aid agreements (FAA) with multiple schools?
It one of the recruiting’s hottest topics back in 2014 for reasons I’ll mention later, but you barely heard a peep about it this past year.
“Yeah, you didn’t hear much about that, and I don’t know if it will become a big issue again or not,” Richt said.
“I think part of what slowed it down a little bit this year (was the NCAA’s warning last April) — that if a kid signs with four schools, he can only go to one; and then the other three are supposedly on the hook for some kind of violation because the kid didn’t go there.”
