When I get to work, I will include another link from the NCAA. I read in today's newspaper that the college coaches will have to recruit the old-fashioned way starting in August. The NCAA's board of directors approved a ban Thursday to eliminate all text messages from coaches to recruits beginning in August, then left open the possibility of revisiting that legislation as early as 2008. The interesting thing is that a recruit could still message a college coach although the coach could not respond under the new rule.

NCAA seeks ban on text messaging

This one is from the NCAA News:

Text-messaging decision highlights presidential meetings

What is your take on this? Would this be some kind of semantics on "text messaging" and "e-mailing"?
