FWIW, when the recruit signs the financial aid paperwork it allows the school to publicly speak about said recruit. However, if said recruit doesn't ultimately sign with that team, and they've spoken publicly about him, they're in violation of an NCAA rule. Though minor, it would hilarious is he signed with both schools, we don't publicly talk about it but USC does, and he ultimately ends up at ND with USC seeing a violation.

to piggy back this...Loy stated ND most often will NOT publicly comment whether the financial paperwork is signed for them to avoid any violations

If he's talking to the staff tonight, perhaps he is letting them know he'll stick with his original pledge to USC?

Early financial agreement, never heard of it before. Thanks to all for the explanations.

If he goes to USC, he gets what he deserves & wants. So it's win/win.

Same for if he chooses ND.

But what you get and deserve are two very different things between those schools.

So is he off the board?

no, financial paperwork or planned EE does not equate to LOI. Will be interested to hear (if we ever) what the conversation is about with the coaches tonight.

I believe above someone stated you can't file financial paperwork at more than one school, but I don't think that's the case. I remember a few years back (or at least I think I do) someone filed multiple prior to his hat ceremony pre-signing day (EE). Can anyone confirm?

You can sign at100 schools for financial pw...locks them into recruit but because it gives unlimited convo with schools the only1that he signs with then didn't commit any violations....

So if he signs with ND then USC committed violations. Lulz. I like where his head is at.

Yep, I'd love to see Sark look like a tool for just having to make this public as soon as he could. He must have had a solid happy buzz going

SC (or just Sark) can't be that stupid, right?

Maybe Sark sees him slipping away. Had him sign the papers as a way to try and reinforce to Hayes that he did commit to USC and so he could talk publicly about Hayes so he can see that Sark still loves him?

If I was a recruit thinking about EE, and not 100%, I'd be signing paperwork with every university I think I may pick.

If I was Sark, I'd be tweeting the hell out of it to start a buzz so that other interested schools may be turned off or confused....

They obviously feel confident that he signs with them but yes I think Sark is an idiot. Also it's just a minor violation, nothing really comes of those.
