Top Six Things Every Mizzou Fan Should Know:
1. You may not have recruiting conversations with prospect or their families. A prospect is any student who has begun classes for the 9th grade (7th grade for Men's Basketball and Softball). This includes in-person contact on or off our campus, by telephone or in writing (e.g., email, Twitter, Facebook, etc.).
2. You may not provide benefits to a student-athlete, a prospect or their family/friends, unless such benefits are available to the general public or all Mizzou students. Examples include but are not limited to: transportation, cash, gifts, meals, clothing, use of unadvertised discounts, etc.
3. You may not use a student-athlete's name, picture or appearance in a commercial advertisement, business promotion or product endorsement.
4. You may not purchase game tickets, apparel, equipment or awards from current student-athletes.
5. You may not sell any memorabilia using the name or image of a current student-athlete, including items that have been autographed by a current student-athlete.
6. You may not provide any academic assistance to current student-athletes, both directly or indirectly.
