If email is outlawed, they will get on chat services like Google Talk or AIM or whatever.

They always have and always will. can't make more than one phone call per week? Set up an 800-number and have kids call you. Can't text message. Give a kid your cell phone number and he can text you. How about e-mails? Trust me, the kid that are the best recruits are still going to get bombarded every day in every way. Coaches will find ways around the rules. They always have and always will.
