Lady Vols had 2 recruiting violations..from knox news but behind a pay wall so here are some quotes....
What rules did Lady Vols violate?
The women’s basketball’s program’s Twitter account on July 10 published a video that showed the names and images of three prospects who had not yet committed.
After seeing the post, a Lady Vols assistant contacted the compliance department to check on its permissibility. The tweet violated NCAA rules regarding publicity of prospective athletes.
The violation was deemed to have occurred because an administrative error and did not involve members of the Lady Vols’ coaching staff. The athletics staff members involved in the error received rules and procedural education.
Tennessee previously reported a women’s basketball violation last January after an assistant called a prospect who was not yet permitted to receive calls. The assistant had missed a phone call and believed it to be from an AAU coach. The call, though, came from the coach’s daughter, and she answered the assistant's return phone call. The assistant received a one-week recruiting penalty, and the coaching staff was prohibited from initiating communication with the involved prospect for 15 days once she was eligible to receive such contact.
