Thats a lot of scholarships tied into a pretzel with incoming freshman

Me thinks they are not going to do that

Presumably they'd have to expand the number of scholarship players allowed on roster as well.

An entire year of eligibility when half the teams will be bounced after one game?

Not to mention you would then probably have to do it for the entirety of D1 if you were to do it at all

I take it back. No way they do this.

No

They are student athletes. If they get another year of eligibility, that means that there are just as many HS kids not getting a basketball scholarship

Not for basketball. But Spring sports should.

It's a nice thought, but I don't see any way it could practically work.

That's on top of 75% of the teams not even qualifying for the ncaa tourney.

I bet they could find a way to make it work if enough athletes filed suit against the NCAA.
