Does anybody know if USF is allowed to invite prospects to be on the sideline during the game?

I think it would be a super bonus if we had local recruits watching the bowl game. High school kids are out on Christmas break now, right?

Looks like that's a no, if this site is correct.

Per NCAA rules, the school is allowed to give athletes a maximum of three tickets to each sporting event that is issued through a pass list. These have to be regular season events within a thirty mile radius to the campus. Basically what that means is the school cannot be giving tickets to recruits of their bowl game or NCAA tournament game. Unofficial visits can occur at any time.

I would assume they have to pay their own way and sit in stands since it is a recruiting dead period.

It is also the dead time as coaches can have no contact with recruits right now.
