The dad called him with info that he might transfer his eighth grade son. So Mays told him if that was his intention he was welcome. He also added that he didn’t handle transfers but others at Ashland’s system were responsible for that. Mays showed pride in his programs and bragged them up, you know….kind of like a back and forth discussion that was thought to be off the record. I’m sure dad had informed him in advance that he was recording the call Mays would have chosen his words differently and would have kept the conversation short.
Anyway, there is no smoking gun in this recording that shows recruiting or anything more than a rule infraction of talking to the parent, which has already been addressed by school administrators. 
The parent is the one at fault here, not the coach.
“I would love to get my hands on him. Now, I know that’s wrong for me to say because of where he’s at (Boyd County). But if there’s ever a time to do it, it’s right now to where he won’t have to do one ounce of KHSAA paperwork because he’s going to be an incoming freshman.”
“I would love to have him in our program… our program would change him for the better.”
“He would help us win a lot of games.”

Yeah Coach Mays wasn't trying to influence him at all  Big Grin
Conversation wouldn’t have happened if Spurlock doesn’t make the call.  He baited the guy.  Shady at best
How about (since I know this against the rules) HANG UP lol. Or "let me call ya back" and DONT lol.
