Survey Shows Slight Majority of Coaches Not in Favor of Ending Dead Period

Numbers are now emerging on the survey the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) sent to their Division I Head Coaches membership that gauged them on the extension or discontinuation of the Recruiting Dead Period. A slight majority of 133 coaches were in favor of the now extended Dead Period, while 123 coaches were not. 84% of Division I Coaches responded to the survey. The Dead Period was extended by the NCAA on Wednesday through January 1 and will not allow DI Coaches to recruit off-campus, host or participate in camps, or allow PSAs to their campuses for visits.
