Does this mean we can sign more OLs and CBs this year from the portal?

Later on, they announced that they have removed the 25-player initial counter rule for the next two years meaning FBS football coaches can now sign as many players as they want, as long as they stay at or under 85 total scholarships.

Let the processing begin.

I read it as it was starting with the upcoming academic year. I dont think it effects the rules governing this past cycle.

It means we can comfortably sign 8 DBs and 5-6 OL this upcoming cycle.

No. They are all going to Bama.

I believe they finally realized that they had to give programs relief from the transfer portal. New coaches are coming into jobs with extremely depleted rosters and causing a bad roster imbalance.
As to a specific team having an advantage that wont happen if everybody else gets to do it too...
What it probably means is the 4 yr scholarship is gone. Guys not producing well at 3rd, 4th, or 5th yr will get processed.

So we can sign as many high schoolers and transfers as we want? As long as the roster is 85??

It won't kill off seniors as a whole, but there will be a number of schools that take advantage of it, and LSU is among them.

With this new ruling, Saban just said he feels he could easily coach another 10-12 years!!!

we better have 10 OLs and 10 DLs in every class

The bottom of that 85, say this season, may be asked to move on to make way for a 2023 player, but I guess it's always been that way.. Roster management has to be a difficult thing these days.

85 on scholarship... How many will schools bring in as walk-ons with a fat NIL deal. An 85 limit means nothing.

Yeah, but now you can get rid of more of those unperforming players.

This just made it easier. Come winter there might be 2500 players in the portal.
