GPA Requirements (Odd Situation)

Whatever the reason, your 2.9 puts you on shaky ground. Particularly if we are talking about Bama as you user name suggests. Very difficult but it has been done. A close friend helped her daughter at Ole Miss last year and another at Bama. Both had around 2.9 to 2.95. They called on many friends to make calls on thier behalf. As I understand the SEC in broad sweeping terms, a certain number of scholarship risks can be allowed.

This is true. Each chapter can take a few number of scholarship risks. What constitutes a "risk" is defined by each chapter. You are going to need people you know to do some serious campaigning for you. You are going to need glowing recs and you're really going to have to sell yourself. Meet girls BEFORE recruitment so that they already know you and like you. It's not impossible, but it won't be easy.
