If there were colleges fielding Qidditch teams, this memo would undoubtedly have surfaced in the Daily Prophet. Its source would be a competing university which would have passed it along to Rita Skeeter.
RE: Harry Potter campus visit
IMPORTANCE: HighHey, all,
It's 24 hours until the big visit, and I hope by now everyone understands how pivotal this weekend is for us. Harry Potter has some off-pitch issues, but he's the best seeker I've seen in 80 years. Vic Krum says Potter can do things on a broom that he can only dream of, and Krum didn't win MVP at worlds last year because the committee pulled his name out of a hat. And if that's not enough, word from management is that it's all of our asses if he signs with someone else.
The good news is that it sounds like it's between us and Puddlemere, if Potter decides to play at all. We have to do whatever it takes to ensure we have a commitment before he leaves on Sunday. Let me say that again—whatever it takes. Do things I don't want to know about if you have to, but let's be sure he signs on the dotted line.
There are more nefarious plans at the link.
Is there an NCAA equivalent in Harry's world?

I finally remembered where I found it. Over at Library Thing's new Groups section, in the Hogwarts Express group.
