It's obviously not a violation BECAUSE HE'S NOT CURRENTLY A COACH. Is he going to steal them away from LU so that he can coach them in a local rec league?Personally, I would hope that he would keep some personal contact and I would understand if he kept professional contact with the players. The man has to make a living and his largest assets are his knowledge and relationships. As I mentioned in one of my first posts, I liked RD because in my direct conversations with him it was evident that he wanted to coach and win at LU. With that being said, he is gone and we have a great coach in RMK. I do not care if RD takes players away from last year's team if he gets a new coaching job. If someone leaves, they will be the one/s missing out, not the team, the school, or the fans. While I am excited about the players that are coming back, I am more excited about the direction of the program. There may be a disappointment or two if someone leaves, but there is not a single player that is going to change the optimism going into the RMK era.
