Title: NCAA approves - this fall will not count towards athlete's eligibility Post by: VinnieVOL on August 22, 2020, 03:40:59 EDT https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/29712267/ncaa-votes-give-extra-year-eligibility-division-fall-athletes (https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/29712267/ncaa-votes-give-extra-year-eligibility-division-fall-athletes) JG is gonna be here forever, it would appear. But in all seriousness, what an opportunity for a program like ours. A year's worth of free development. :thumbup: Title: Re: NCAA approves - this fall will not count towards athlete's eligibility Post by: 10EC on August 22, 2020, 04:28:41 EDT https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/29712267/ncaa-votes-give-extra-year-eligibility-division-fall-athletes (https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/29712267/ncaa-votes-give-extra-year-eligibility-division-fall-athletes) JG is gonna be here forever, it would appear.

But there’s no hurry or anything. Signing day is still like 3 months away. Take all the time you need. :rolleyes:

Will be interesting to see how many take advantage of this...Good way to stick away for another year and work on your masters for free. And just think....Gitmo can stay for what will seem like his 9th year. :biggrin: Title: Re: NCAA approves - this fall will not count towards athlete's eligibility Post by: BanditVol on September 01, 2020, 04:57:45 EDT Will they have bowls?

The playoff committee announced around 3 weeks ago they were a go on having the playoffs as usual in Jan. https://collegefootballplayoff.com/news/2020/8/5/2021-schedule-changes.aspx I'm sure there will be some bowl games but it might be just the bigger bowls since so many conferences that fill the smaller bowls aren't playing. There was 41 bowls scheduled for season....Don't see anyway they will come close to having that many. |
