Explain the extra year rule to me - how do scholarships fit?


Oct 15, 2020, 9:58 AM

I do understand that the year is a freebie for the athletes.
What I do not understand is what happens with the scholarships.
You have 85, averaging say 25 including transfers, grads, dropouts, etc per year that will leave.
So, you recruit 25 and have commitments.

Of the 25 planning to leave.
Let’s say that
18 are grads (assume 3 leave to go to work outside football.)
4 decide to go pro
3 percent of transfer/dropout
So 10 leave.
(Adjust as you see fit).

So, your 85 drops to 75 rather than To 60 that you had planned.
Add 75 to the 25 planned coming in and you have 100 or 15 over the limit.

Do you have to dump 15 to make room?
If you don’t bring in new - that creates a future issue on talent, backups, succession.
Where do all the 2021 high school grads go if the spots don’t free up?
Do they increase scholarships for one year?

Maybe this has been addressed, but I have not seen it.

I'm not 100% sure on this, but I believe they said that any senior that returns for next season will still be on scholarship but it will not count against the 85.

I'm pretty sure that is a 1 year deal though, so the real problem with evening out numbers comes the following year and beyond as coaches try to balance out having between 40 and 50 players on campus next season with freshmen eligibility.

That is how I understand it as well. So for 1 yr you could have 110 scholie

I actually think it could theoretically be higher.

I'm sure the sec will find a way.

Yes, this is correct. So we take a full class in 2021 and every senior decides to stay we will be over 85. In 2022 the seniors who stayed will graduate, however you now have Jrs. who decided to stay an extra year and still count against the 85. Some will leave, but the reduction will not allow a full class.

That means every class should be smaller in 2022 and it will hurt the high school players most. Smaller schools may benefit from the larger pool still available. SEC teams will find a way to still add 25+.2023 & 2024 will have the same problem, but by then the numbers should level out.

I suspect the NCAA "rules" on scholarships is about as fluid as syrup on a pancake. I suspect they will be altering, modifying, tweaking and adjusting it for the net 3 or 4 years at least.

I wouldn't read anything into it now as to try and figure out how this will affect the 2022 and later classes.

I don't think the NCAA has a clue as to what the recruiting limits will be in 2022 and beyond.
