[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think folks making this more complex than it is. Everyone on a roster in Sep and after would get 5 years to play 5 seasons.

If your a 2025 who just redshirted, you still get 4 more years.

If your a 2925 who did not redshirt, you still get 4 more years etc[/quote]Because it's not that simple.  If you're too old, for example.  Or if you've used a 2nd redshirt, for example. 
None of which is complicated or complex.  [/quote]

Of course the age restriction comes into, play, that’s the whole point. I thought that went without saying lol[/quote]You said folks are making it more complex than it is, and  everyone on the roster this fall will get 5 years to play 5.  That's not the case.  There are 4+ years of classes that could have 2 or more redshirt years under their belts, and will use that instead.  [/quote]

No, everyone on roster will get 5 years to play 5 years, not additional years. If they have two redshirts years, they don’t get years added on.

Simply put, you get

This is so stupid. Why not just go with 4 in 5 from 19 or graduation. [/quote]Because if a guy sat out a year, and then got injured and used a medical redshirt & was a junior this fall... Then the NCAA came in halfway through this and said "We have a new rule, you have 2 or 3 years and not 4"-- they would be sued by hundreds of basketball and football players, and others.

This 5 in 5 solution is to prevent being sued.  It won't work, they'll be sued and lose, but that's what they're trying to avoid.[/quote]

They are going to be sued over 5 in 5 and it will be enjoined.  Creating more chaos.  [/quote]There are of course tons of things going on with college athletics that any Tom, Dick or Harry could have issue with nowadays, and a lot of it is the NCAA making their own bed.

There is, maybe for once, an article up just today on ESPN that makes sense regarding the legal maneuverings that the NCAA should pursue in their neverending lobby to Congress -- put forth a skinny bill to allow them to set their own standards on eligibility.  Without having to weather every local court in the land and their temporary injunctions.

Were that to ever occur, and that might set a record for tight bills in Congress, a "solution" like 5 in 5 can have legs.  Hell, they could make it a real "4 in 5", but we've probably crossed the Rubicon already.[/quote]
