I had a similar situation a few years ago.. when SU basketball was recruiting the son of a work colleague of mine.   I was initially worried about discussing SU with my colleague... even though we talked sports all the time.   I asked SU Compliance for a ruling ... and they told me this:   Since  I had a pre-existing relationship with the guy and his son (a relationship before we started recruiting the kid),  it was perfectly okay for me to discuss SU with him and answer any of his questions about the school.  The kid eventually went to Stanford where he mainly sat on the bench for four years.

Then, the very next year,  SU football was showing interest in my cousin's son.  Since I obviously had a pre-existing relationship with him,  I didn't need to ask for a ruling.   SU never offered him because they considered him too small, but they invited him to enroll as a "recruited walk-on."   He wanted to play, so he went instead to U of New Hampshire where he was the starting QB for three years.

Sounds like you may have a similar situation with the soccer coach.
