My understanding is that there are certain times of the year when NCAA coaches are not allowed to contact potential recruits.
Is any one aware of what these rules are or where I can find out more on NCAA recruiting rules?
Thanks

Try http://www.ncaa.org/student-athletes/future/recruiting.
They have calenders which show the specific dates. Just gone through all this as a parent. The schooling side is the area of greatest concern. The Australian school system and the US System are not easy bed fellows.

The insurance is the big thing to check out. We paid insurance via the college which we believed covered 100% of bills but we found out after 3 visits to a clinic and 2 MRIs (done twice because they buggered up the first one) The bill came to US $12,780!!!!!
No overnight stays just visits and for a stomach complaint nothing super major. Insurance covered most of it but we still had to pay US $800.
It was then that we found out the insurance covers 100% only if it happens on the bball court or training. And only 80% everywhere else. (does not explain why we didn't pay more than $800 for above...we didn't argue as it should have been more.
If you fall over and break an ankle on the way to Walmart it could cost you thousands.....

So, what's the answer to that one @Rabbit 98?
I am aware that a full scholarship that covers insurance and health includes a statement where in certain circumstances you may have to pay the remaining 10 - 20% of medical fees, but how do you insure that gap?

We covered it under credit card travel insurance. Got a supplementary card for him and booked his flight with it and covered him for 4 months. They said it would cover it but luckily never had to test it.
