Not at all different. A company local to Akron should be proud to support the Akron-based DI school. 1 Quote

Wyoming as a state has a population that is similar to Summit County. Even if someone like Goodyear steps in and gives Akron $500K-$1M, I'm expect programs like VCU, Saint Louis, and Loyola Chicago to get something closer to $1.5M+. Just widens the gap between the haves and have nots. Quote

Blue & Gold Posted April 8 Report Posted April 8 Idea: teams/players should have to sign two-year contracts. If this included the redshirt year this would still give the athlete an opportunity to transfer two times in his/her career if they would so choose. Sound fair? 4 Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted 7 hours ago Report Posted 7 hours ago There will be a lawsuit to make this retroactive for the latest crop of applicable individuals, but otherwise, this should stand. Good move by the NCAA. 1 Quote
roopride Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago Can a player play 5 years? Or is it a 5 yr window to play 4? Quote
Blue & Gold Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago So no more redshirting? The player is allowed to play 5 years? Quote

Players have 5 years to play 5 years of college ball from the time they graduate high school or the time they turn 19 - whichever comes first. No more redshirts (which is a good thing).
