The new NCAA rule is that all schools can sign a maximum of 28 players to LOIs but only 25 of those can actually be admitted

The NCAA originally lowered it to 28 a few years ago, but the new rule is 25 as of this year.

I'm pretty sure this is incorrect and it is still 28 (actually I'm pretty sure the 28 rule only went into effect for the 2013 class***).

NCAA Bylaw 15.5.6.1 limits FBS football programs to a total number of scholarships to 85 "counters" annually including 25 scholarships for "initial counters." Counters (NCAA Bylaw 15.02.3) are individuals who are receiving institutional financial aid that is countable against the aid limitations in a sport, initial counters (NCAA Bylaw 15.02.3.1) are individuals who are receiving countable financial aid in a sport for the first time. Bylaw 13.9.2.3 limits schools to signing 28 NLI from initial signing day through May 31.[1]


***Nope I'm wrong. As of the NCAA rulebook, the rule went into effect on 8/1/10 meaning it would have began effective the 2011 football signings.
