Okay here is the path I decided on. Let us flood the NCAA with emails informing them of public opinion of this action.
I have posted this on Facebook, please consider taking action and sharing it with your Facebook friends.
The please consider burying the NCAA and its compliance office under a deluge of emails protesting their handling of Geno Auriemma's gracious phone all to the coverage team at the LL World Series to give encouragement to Mo'ne Davis.
Write your own note or send the following.
To the compliance office of the NCAA,
Your recent finding of Geno Auriemma guilty of a Secondary Recruiting Violation is beyond the absurd and inconsistent even with your own rules. Mo'ne Davis is not in high school and Coach Auriemma did not call her, her parents, or her representative as per rule 13.1.3.1.4 but rather called the coverage team for LL after checking with the Connecticut Compliance Office. At the suggestion of the coverage team who mentioned Mo'ne was present the phone was handed to her. Coach Auriemma encouraged her and the team in their play and no, nada, zilch basketball or recruiting was involved. It is inane actions like this that has led the NCAA to become a laughingstock today under the leadership of Mike Emmert.
There was nothing hidden in any of Coach Auriemma's action since they occurred openly on national LL coverage. If the NCAA wants to begin regaining any credibility the first step is to follow your own rules and to make public apology to a coach who was only encouraging a kid to chase her dreams the very work the NCAA should be doing.
Thank you,
