[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will the roster limits I’ve seen published only apply to the Power 5? From what I understand the Power 5 can offer unlimited scholarships up to the roster limit. How will this impact conferences outside the Power 5?

I’d love a quick summary if anyone is in the know. [/quote]

All D1 schools will be impacted.  Power 4 are rich enough and want to win enough that they will fully fund the scholarships.  It’s great for football (which will get an additional 20 roster slots) but will reduce rosters for baseball and other sports (although now 34 players will get full scholarships up from divvying up the dollar equivalent of 11.7 scholarships).

Ivy and Patriot League that don’t give scholarships won’t be affected much.

It’s all the other D1 divisions that will struggle.  There will be schools within the conference that can afford it and schools that can’t.  My understanding is you can’t make individual school decisions at odds with the conference.

At least two baseball teams just announced they are halting 2025 and 2026 recruiting (this is a coach that tweets a lot that seems to know…but didn’t name the programs) until there is more clarity on this issue.[/quote]
