By the letter of the rule they can't talk. That is why they text (probably not they just talk). It is the worst kept secret they have always done it. They came up with the interview process because players/agents and teams were already doing it previously. The interview process was a convenient way to justify those contracts that started rolling in 1 minute after FA started.
