Now as for the spam, that's interesting. Is The Arbiter selling email addresses?  |
Another aspect of confirming the school is that some schools have two campuses where I live. Some play both the girl's and boy's basketball at different locations. It is possible without confirming with the AD or Athletic Office that you go to the wrong site. With school expanding left and right around my area, you may make a mistake and go the wrong campus. As you just stated, the officials are usually the last to know about significant changes.
