>> It prevents Football Bowl Subdivision schools from hiring people close to a prospective student-athlete for a two-year period before and after the students anticipated and actual enrollment at the school. This provision was adopted in mens basketball in 2010 (effective immediately, though schools may honor contracts signed before Jan. 18, 2017).
How did Missouri basketball get around this rule when they hired Michael Porter, Sr. as an assistant coach and landed Michael Porter, Jr. as a recruit within a couple of weeks of one another?

Schools can still hire a parent/associate as an assistant coach, but not for a non-coaching position. So a school can fill one of its limited assistant coaching positions but is prevented from creating a departmental staff position to funnel payments to parents/associates.
