I don't think star recruits are just going to stay at a tip school and get buried on the depth chart. They will transfer to get playing time. This already happens at the current roster sizes so increasing the rosters would only increase this imo.

Exactly. This isn't the 50's anymore. Kids want to play and some kid that can get time won't settle for being Bama's 5th string QB just because he used to go watch games there with Paw Paw growing up.

I don't have any particular objection to increasing roster sizes but don't really see the point. Increasing scholarship limits is impractical because money even at the top schools is finite.

85 scholarship and 105 total players is a pretty big roster.
