This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

NCAA Reportedly To Shift from Dead to Quiet Period on June 1 by dillon77

What is a quiet period?
"During a quiet period, a college coach may only have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-athletes or their parents on the college's campus. A coach may not watch student-athletes compete (unless a competition occurs on the college's campus) or visit their high schoolrs."

Per MPG's comment on ND 2022 Recruiting:
- Class of 2022 (juniors) would normally have been taking official visits (paid by the university) since just after the NCAA D-1 Championship Game. They can now start to do this in June.

- So, perhaps KK Bransford and Janiah Barker or recruits heretofore unknown will show up at ND. Bransford has some 10 finalists and taking her 5 allowable OC's (or an unofficial to a "close" school like ND) can help her winnow down her choices. Barker has kept a close deck on who her finalists are (some teases, some hints). If she was to show up at du lac, that would be a good sign.

- And there could be 22 prospects we don't know aobut or even some of the 2023's allowed to drop by for a visit.

Will verify this when I see the offical press release, but it looks like there is going to be movement on the recruiting front. Let's hope that helps ND's efforts.
