Brandon Kennedy - 7th Year Eligibility

I would think every player would receive another year of eligibility IF the season were cancelled. Also, I would think that every current 2-year player would/should have the option or pursue the draft IF the season is cancelled and the athlete wants to do so.

2 pages and not one Gerald Williams sighting. This place is slipping. Signed in one decade and finished his career here 2 decades later.

There will be a college football season. According to many doctors, a cocktail of chloroquine, azithromycin, and zinc early in the symptoms is the answer.

Many Doctors? Are you Serious Clarke? SMFH!! Already proven to have little if any effect. I will take Science over generic Doctors and the Cheerleader in office.

Back in the 60s when Tennessee was the SEC and a national track team power, coach Chuck Rohe signed 28 year old Bill Skinner to a scholarship. Skinner was ex-Navy and working as a welder in a shipyard when Rohe signed him. Skinner was an important part of the Vols track team as he was the second best javelin thrower in the U.S. and one of top in the world.

Kicker with the glasses from UGA was there for like a decade

He was not on scholly for a couple of years, Richt refused to put kickers on full scholly back in the day. He basically came down out of the stident body and tried out after their starting kicker went down. Seems like he stayed there forever.

Youā€™re exactly right with your interpretation, which mirrors my concern. Thereā€™s no doubt in my mind that if thereā€™s no 2020 football season (a possibility about which we differ in terms of perceived likelihood), the NCAA will permit an extra year of eligibility which would inherently affect the maximum roster size. That, to my knowledge, has already been covered for spring 2021 (if it happens; to your credit, no guarantee that it does) with the permitted extension of spring 2020 scholarships.

Your can of worms is valid and worrisome. To me, the concern subsides in one year at the latest so youā€™d only have a single class with which to reckon. Iā€™m under the impression that the 85 player headcount cap would be waived with little fanfare, but that clearly presents an issue for a multitude of G5 programs that donā€™t have as firm a financial footing as UT.

Couldnā€™t the schools get a stimulus check to cover the extra expenditures? Better yet, couldnā€™t the Federal Reserve make yet more money magically appear out of thin air? Where are we now, about Twenty-Four Trillion in the red? I mean these extra-eligibility waivers couldnā€™t cost more than what, a few billion (probably much less) ...nationwide? Thatā€™s nuthinā€™ in the grand scheme of things. Our (National) ā€œbudgetā€ is officially laughable. Let them fellers play!
