Great responses, probably spot-on as a practical analysis.  Question:
 
(An aside first:  I think the booster issue is actually a distraction.  For the sake of clarity, when I called the SU compliance office, I asked what their policy was about fans tweeting football recruits.  I double-checked by asking if it was even forbidden for just a current SU student who does nothing more than go to the games.  The point that the guy made repeatedly was not an attempt to parse the definition of booster, it was that NCAA rules allow only the 10 paid full-time coaches to recruit, including via written materials.  To your point about changing the rules, the NCAA viewed as some abstract quasi-governmental agency, separate from the members, isn't the issue.  They were all set to amend that recruiting rule to allow other staff members to participate in recruiting this Spring.  Then some of the membership raised their hands to slow things down.  So we can blame "the NCAA," but we should keep in mind that in some cases it is our peer institutions that are holding up change.)
 
With regard the to the enforceability issue, do you think your analysis holds for snail mail sent to prospects' home addresses?  Assume that people don't sign it, don't include return addresses, etc. if necessary.
