5 SCHOOL years to play 4 instead of the CALENDAR year. That would eliminate the early enrollee system that is BS IMO. Why should certain players get to get a "free" spring practice under their belt and not everyone? Same goes for summer school It gives certain players and programs a distinct advantage.

It allows some kids to attend school and participate in the program without it really counting against anything. A player that also plays high school baseball or runs track, or wants to go to prom, or graduate with his friends cannot do the same.

Just make it so the signees for every school shows up for fall practice and not any time before that. Make the system fair for every team and player.

everyone has the same opportunity to do it. i dont see why its unfair


if kids have their school work in order, and want to get a head start, why not?

It is based on the seasons within those 5 years, so it is basically school years anyway.
