FSU Contacts NCAA Re Bush Message

Florida State has contacted the NCAA about a possible secondary violation involving Gov. Jeb Bush, university President T.K. Wetherell and recruit Myron Rolle.

Bush sent a text message to Wetherell in August that was shown to Rolle. It read: "I'm excited you're looking at Florida State. T.K. Wetherell and I are friends. When you come to Tallahassee again, let's hook up with each other."

The message could be deemed a secondary violation if the NCAA determines that Bush was acting as a representative of the school. Bob Minnix, FSU's associate athletic director for compliance, is preparing a written report to send to the NCAA.

"We're in the process of researching all the cases that might be similar to this, if there's any," Minnix said.
