[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh I don’t understand how it is crushing for 27s-29s or make getting recruited out of high school harder. Can someone explain it for me again in easy to understand terms? Thank you![/quote]

I realize the math is hard for some.  Instead of 38 player roster cap/4 years of eligibility or 9.5 player slots per class, you have a 38 player roster cap/5 years of eligibility, or 7.6 player slots per class. This is 2 fewer recruits per class per school.

Making matters worse, for the first few years, with larger average classes already on board, if players elect to stay for their 5th year, the total recruiting need will be even smaller. So you could see some programs, especially top programs that have the ability to bring in top transfers, recruiting only 2-4 players per class, before the compression balances out.  The same phenomenon happened with COVID, but was mitigated somewhat as there were no roster limits. Taken together, these two changes could make it very tough for 27s through 30s.  Not ideal for those with aspiring college players in those classes--especially if they have ambition to play for a top 40 program. [/quote]
