Message: [QUOTE="stamfordhusky, post: 5014739, member: 649"] Medical exams of recruits are generally OK. From the NCAA bylaws: "Before participating in an on-campus evaluation, a prospective student-athlete is required to undergo a medical examination or evaluation administered or supervised by a physician (e.g., family physician, team physician). A nurse practitioner whose state medical licensure allows for health care practice independent of physician supervision may complete the medical examination without supervision by a physician." Medical Screening Examination. During a prospective student-athlete's official or unofficial visit to campus, an institution may conduct a medical screening examination to determine the prospective student-athlete's medical qualifications to participate in intercollegiate athletics, provided : (a) The examination is conducted by the institution’s regular team or designated physician, or other institutional medical staff member (e.g., athletic trainer); (b) No other nonmedical athletics department staff members are present; (c) The examination does not include any test or procedure designed to measure the athletics agility or skill of the prospective student-athlete; Exception -- On-Campus Evaluation -- Basketball. In basketball, additional athletics department staff members (e.g., coaches) may be present during a medical examination that is conducted as part of an on-campus evaluation (see Bylaw 13.11.2.1) and the medical evaluation may include tests or procedures designed to measure the athletics agility or skill of the prospective student-athlete.
