I like the new red shirt rule where a player can participate in up to 4 games and still get a fifth year of eligibility. Hopefully, it is a step towards everyone getting 5 years of eligibility.
That said, of all the comments I have heard, no one has pointed out that this will mean that schools will have fewer new scholarships to give out because schools will have more carryover players. This impact will actually start next year, as you can red shirt someone any time but obviously the total impact will grow over the next four years.
One solution is to increase the number of scholarships beyond the current 85. There probably are others.
Fight On!
