Those guys get the shaft because 2-4 go to ace pitchers and can't-miss position players and the rest (~8 scholarships) have to be split among 20 guys. Then, 10 or so have nothing at all.
I agree 100%.

Ron Polk led the fight against the NCAA's limit for almost his entire career.

He pretty much said the 11.7 scholly rule is a major factor why so few black athletes play Div I baseball. Too many of them can't afford paying even 50% of their college expenses. So Polk claimed (and probably still claims) that the NCAA is racist.

It's ridiculous. 18-20 on a 35 man roster is much more reasonable.

As a follow-up to the earlier posts about the roster currently being over the 35 player limit for next year, I just learned that a couple of returning players are borderline with their grades this semester and if they don't pick up their grades through final exams, well......you know.



PS-It's not Bregman or Nola.

Support adding Women's Beach Volleyball to increase the scholarships. Everybody wins.

Im fairly certain the restrictions are in place to deter players from playing baseball in college.

That still leaves quite a few that I would hate to see go because of grades.

There won't be any public discussion of players' grades at the CC meeting.

The meeting will focus on the newly signed recruits.

I figure that, I'm saying you need not be so generic next time. Too vague. We need answers!

I doubt we see Russian outing players with bad grades on here.
