Not sure where this should be.

If there is no season. Will there be a freshman class? And if so do they all use redshirts?

At this point no one has any answers

I just wonder if there is no season if the powers that be will not just say "no season, no eligibility year". Everyone comes back right where they were. In coming freshman, year one eligibility, a second year eligible, will be just that and so on up the eligibility ladder, at least until they get to years beyond "4". BUT this may be way too simple. No lawyers, no 20-50 page rule explanation, just way too simple.

It’s hard to fathom that life won’t start to get back to normal by mid summer. There are medications that are proving to be very effective at fighting this virus and companies are trial testing vaccines right now. That being said...can the season be played completely as normal if players aren't able to join the team until July? Not sure. But what an absolutely nightmare for the ncaa if a year of sporting events get cancelled

How will 2021 recruiting be handled if there isn't a 2020 high school football season?

Good Question, lots of kids don't get much hype or exposure

If there is no season though - but there still are classes - then do the guys still have scholarships? Can't imagine they would revoke them and not likely to be major at UT but smaller, less funded schools I can imagine it will be interesting.

We all know why the sky is blue. Skittles

If there is no football there will be no eligibility. If there is no eligibility, then there is no class. If there is no class, they don't lose a year. They will be freshmen next year. We and everyone else with have the biggest freshmen class in history of the modern NCAA. However, we will lose some of those guys in two years instead of three because they will be subject to the same 21 years old or 3 years removed from high school to go pro. None of this is decided but the NCAA cannot and will not cancel a season for a reason that is out of a student athlete's control and then have it cost them a year of eligibility. This also means that we could possibly have some 7 year seniors in the future.

We can claim another NC just like Bama does!

Best 7th year center in the SEC!

Well it was a stretch but if you count this year getting to work out and grow, 5 years plus a possible medical redshirt that makes 7. I was just taking it to the extreme.
