OCT12 Compliance Update - Coaches

Ensuring TCU remains in compliance with the NCAA legislation is everyone’s responsibility. Part of this requires all individuals that are aware of or suspect a violation of NCAA legislation may have occurred to report the occurrence to the TCU Compliance Office. There are several methods to report a potential violation:

Stop by the Compliance Office and speak with a staff member;

Call the Compliance Office at 817-257-7525;

Email a Compliance Staff member, the Director of Athletics, or the Faculty Athletics Representative;

Send an anonymous email via the Compliance section of www.gofrogs.com Once a potential violation has been reported, the Compliance Office staff investigates whether a violation actually occurred by au-diting records and discussing the situation with individuals that may have been involved. An individual who reports a potential viola-tion will remain confidential during the investigation. All members of the TCU community aware of potential violations are required to report them to the Compliance Office under the NCAA’s ethical conduct legislation. Knowingly failing to report violations can result in employees being relieved of their duties and in students being charged with violations of student conduct.

When prospective student-athletes and their families are on-

campus for an unofficial visit and they are participating in a tail-

gate with the coaches and/or team, the prospective student-

athlete and their family must pay the actual cost of the meal.

Please also remember to keep a receipt of the value each indi-

vidual paid to eat at the meal for verification.

The November signing period is quickly approaching. Please be

sure to send all NLI requests to Michael O’Keefe, Compliance Coor-

dinator - Financial Aid, by November 1, 2012 in order for all re-

quests to be processed and returned to you in enough time to be

sent to the prospective student-athletes.

The use of all tobacco products (e.g. cigarettes, cigars, chewing

tobacco) is prohibited by all game personnel (e.g. coaches, train-

ers, managers, and game officials) and all student-athletes dur-

ing practice and competition.

For game personnel, the penalty for violating this legislation is

determined by the particular sport’s rules-making body.

A student-athlete who uses tobacco products during a practice

or competition shall be disqualified for the remainder of that

practice or competition.

All prospective and currently enrolled student-athletes and current and former institutional staff members, which includes any individual who performs work for the institution or the athletics department even if he or she does not receive compensation for such work, are subject to the NCAA’s legislation applicable to unethical conduct. Unethical conduct includes but is not limited to:

Refusal to furnish information to the NCAA;

Knowing involvement in academic fraud;

Knowing involvement in improper inducement of prospects;

Knowingly providing false or misleading information to the NCAA;

Knowing involvement in providing a banned substance to a stu-dent-athlete;

Receiving benefits for facilitating or arranging a meeting a stu-dent-athlete and an agent.
