NCAA Rules ???


Apr 4, 2017, 3:27 PM

wondering if this is correct ( at least this is what I think the NCAA rules are??? )

Baseball -- player can be drafted pro,straight out of high school ?? ( if
he decides to attend college,he must play for 3 years ) before he is eligible for draft ??

Basketball -- player must attend college 1 year, ( or sit out a season / jr.college,prep school,,ect, ) before he is eligible for the pro draft ??

Football -- must attend college for 3 years, ( or sit out,attend jr.college,prep school,ect ) before he is eligible for draft ??

has the NCAA ever considered or voted to require all amateur athletes, in the three major sports, to attend college for a minimum of 3 years,before draft eligible ?? -- just asking for a friend**

Correct, all of the rules stipulated are based on the

professional leagues themselves. NCAA doesn't have any say in the matter.

^^this is correct


Apr 4, 2017, 3:37 PM [ in reply to Re: NCAA Rules ??? ]

the pro leagues make the rules, not the NCAA. All the NCAA can do is make players INELIGIBLE as an amateur.

I don't believe the NCAA has any jurisdiction when it comes to the eligibility of being drafted. I wish the NCAA would get rid of the rule.

Each professional sport has it's own rules,as far as drafting eligible amateurs** I learn something everyday !!! --

the NCAA would only step in to declare a player not-eligible to play amateur sports,if he has played for money / pay / rewards,ect. ??

the league & officials can vote on a change as they see fit - correct ??

wish,all players had to stay in school,minimum 3 years ( selfish wish for me* )

Does an age minimum of 19 years also apply?***


Apr 4, 2017, 3:41 PM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

what is the maximum age,a player can play college sports ??


Apr 4, 2017, 3:50 PM

is this also different in each sport ??

Also, I'm no lawyer and don't know how contracts work but...


Apr 4, 2017, 3:43 PM

It would seem that you could have the players commit to playing for however many years and then if a team of whatever sport wants to draft that player....then they owe the school X dollars.

In baseball, the 3 years rule only applies if the sign with a 4 year college. It's not uncommon for some good players going with Jr Colleges oUt of high school so they don't have to wait 3 years
