College Athletes autographs question

[BCEagles]

Hi,
Can someone help me out as I am tryng to figure out if college athletes can sign fanmail. I have seen websites that are dedicated to college athletes successes, and I read a topic on this site that disscussed this. However many schools do not allow their athletes to sign fanmail. Do the autograph polices vary by school? Or is it all schools that do not allow fanmail? If someone could clear this up for me, that would be great.

Yes, they vary by school.

For example, Florida quarterback Tim Tebow did not sign in care of Florida, but Kentucky basketball star John Wall did in care of his school.

I do know that the University of Tennessee no longer accepts fan mail for its athletes. They did way back when Peyton Manning was there, but not anymore. All the coaches are fair game, though.

Thanks! Have you seen any successes from Boston College?

I have not seen any successes. I would look up their athletic department's Web site and contact the secretary for whatever sport you are inquiring about and email them to see if they accept mail.

I do know that in recent years that number of schools that allow mail to their athletes has decreased greatly over fears of violating NCAA rules if a fan were to send say money or a gift to the student-athlete.
