Help!! Rock painting

I agree. It's really a matter of the NCAA's anal nature in over-reaching. Students and fans from a message board are not BOOSTERS. If the program is behind the painting, that's one thing, but compliance is having a cow, because they think they might get blamed for it.

Fans are only boosters when they DONATE money to the University. Otherwise, they are NOT boosters.
 
And for all you people who inaccurately point out that the media publicizes visits.

UT Compliance @UTCompliance
@BigOrangeButch its actually 13.10.5: A member institution shall not publicize-or arrange for publicity of-a PSA's visit to campus #theRock

The institution or its boosters (fans included) cannot do it.

Give me a break, so I can send tweets and instagram every recruit and beg them to come here but I can't write a name on a banner and say welcome?

Child please.....
 
Perhaps the next message to be painted on the rock should be: "Recruits, we would like to welcome you to the University of Tennessee but the NCAA, in its infinite lack of wisdom, says that we can not address you by name."

Or have a mob of our UT beauties to wear the orange bikinis and chase them all day with banners!
Whatever it takes to bring the talent home!!!!

Heck for that matter I'd chase them in a bikini, but that could be pretty ugly.
On second thought the banner on the truck is a great idea!
Go VOLS!
 
I love our fans. We got to the rock this morning to hang up the banner and the damn thing had already been painted. We almost hated to cover it up but we figured "as soon as compliance yanks our's down, they'll have another surprise underneath. :)

Thanks for being patient guys. Twitter, do your work. GO VOLS!

Freaking awesome!!!!!
I love the VOLS and our fans!
Recruits..... Notice the pride and enthusiasm!
You want to be a part of the orange uprising!
 
I can't help, but wonder...What if a huge banner was hung from a dorm room saying names of recruits. Then said person left the dorm room and locked it...Would it get taken down, if so how?
 
Compliance Dept needs to get it: Sometimes you take the secondary to land the big boys. Ask Saban and Meyer.

They are just doing a little "covering that a$$" speak. That way they can say that they don't condone usage of the rock for recruiting. If the compliance office was that concerned the rock would be moved or a fence built around it.
