Kabiri already reclassed in HS!

Kabiri and Burns just walked into Madalon's office and said "Hey Coach, school loads been kind of heavy. We think we'll cut down to just 3 courses per semester for 2 more years. "

The real.question will be to see if any schools recind offers of 2027 kids if one does I think it will be a domino effect. This is way bigger than the portal.

I don’t think
You’ll see 2027 recind but you’ll see less 2028 commits and more players cut while on college rosters.

After all, they’d rather roll dice on unknown 27 then keep a 25 that has shown they can’t cut it

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.

Of course the age restriction comes into, play, that’s the whole point. I thought that went without saying lol

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.

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

Do us all a favor and just google it to confirm what we're saying.

This is so stupid. Why not just go with 4 in 5 from 19 or graduation.

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.

They are going to be sued over 5 in 5 and it will be enjoined. Creating more chaos.

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.

So why change anything then? It’s complete chaos today and this doesn’t seem to help

In order for it to be lessened and sooner than later. They don't care that ultimately fewer athletes will have opportunities.

Current athletes who still had remaining eligibility after the 2025–26 academic year will be given a choice. They can use the new "5-in-5" model or continue under previous eligibility rules (four year to play five), depending on which is more beneficial to the individual player. That old model would still have traditional medical hardship waivers extending the timeline for certain players.
