Traditionally, 25 is the number of players allowed in a single recruiting class, while 32 was set up last October to help high school players struggling to get scholarship offers through college programs rather than favoring more experienced players from the transfer portal. Now, the NCAA is considering a move to remove the limit altogether, for two years, based on what has now become numerous reports.
With that in mind, it’s possible that a couple of definite positives, as well as some negatives if the NCAA aren’t careful, will come from this potential new rule under consideration.good news
** Many high school players will find relief from issues that extend from the transfer portal. Many college programs go beyond the high school horizons for more experienced and physically developed college transfers through the transfer portal. He has put many really good players without a college destination and last year would have likely signed a college scholarship to play football.
** For any given roster in the event of a major change due to a change in training, or simply losing several players in the transfer portal, or for any reason, this rule will help in the short term. Adding additional players, possibly three, can enhance the position and/or depth scheme and roster.
Both conditions are very important for maintaining fairness and balance. There are also potential concerns about raising scholarship limits for a recruiting category over a two-year period.
bad news
*Programs and a coaching staff determined to win and win will now likely cut additional players from scholarships (they’ve already cut some of it, pathetic as it is) so they can then go out and recruit what they personally consider better options. Point blank, anyone who doesn’t think that a team in a highly competitive SEC, B10 or Big XII won’t cut some scholarships so they can add more talent to the roster while the unlimited recruitment scholarships base is available is a fool.
Therefore, it is imperative that the NCAA also establish a parallel rule that publicly and publicly states that teams cannot cut players during this two-year period without a valid reason (legal issue, etc.). If the NCAA doesn’t, it will likely find itself in a pile of public problems across the media, parents and players talking about it during interviews and on social media, among others. It’s also possible that lawsuits from players who are snapped together and the NCAA sued over the new rule.
In short, this will get ugly unless the NCAA puts an additional rule in place Before another rule goes into effect. This is a huge sticking point and one that the NCAA can’t miss (but will likely rely on its poor oversight in recent years).
**saving. Many programs clearly hate each other. It’s just a fact. Choose a country with a high competitive game as an example. If one team can take a few in-state leads away from the other team, even if they don’t really want to take advantage of their talents for themselves, it is very likely that that will happen. Before the days of scholarship limits, this practice was common.
This happened in many schools. The coaches just wanted to reduce the competition. It’s pathetic, but some coaches are still probably that pathetic. Some coaches simply don’t care that the recruit has good college experience and/or actually has a chance to play in the specific school they’re training in, but it’s all about preventing the competitor from getting a potentially useful player that will allow them to win more games.
Side Point
** Recruit well, earn in the short term, then take a salary and move on. On some shows, winning has been historically difficult. However, if a group of coaches in a school that’s usually at the bottom of the conference rankings win a big two-year win just so they can cash in, are they good, bad, or indifferent?
If the program can bring in two huge consecutive semesters of employment, then within two years it will likely have at least an experience advantage. After winning and seeing these players have run out of eligibility, these coaches will likely be looking to move on to an even greater level Brand name school and take the salary that comes with it.
Go to follow
One can argue for good or bad about this scenario. in both cases. At least the school’s fan base will have something to cheer about for a while. This is one way to look at it.
Overall, there should be some serious discussion about what this potential rule could, inadvertently, actually create scenarios that degrade the sport. There are some good things, yes, but without additional, very specific and timely rules regarding scholarship cuts during that time, the NCAA can create a huge problem for itself and many others as well.
