He is being recruited for this year (2023). He was initially committed to Marist but pulled his commitment due to coaching changes. He has posted about 10+ D1 offers and would be an incredible get for us. Great size and athleticism.

Who are your 13? Scholarships are tricky with extra eligibility, but between Moody and Vazquez at least one scholarship doesn’t count, if not both. I could be wrong, but someone else here will know more than me.
All scholarships count now. That exception was only a one year deal. The way I count it the Grizz roster is full unless someone quits or is tossed. BTW, we can look for some changes in the portal and signings time limitation. Coaches are becoming weary of the recruiting taking so long that it has pushed back scheduling in a big way. Seems that teams want to know who will be playing for you before they commit to a game. Weber lost a big money game this year due to Dillon returning to school. That team backed out of the game because they didn't want tp pay for a game they could very well lose.GrizWhiz said:GrizWin99 said:Who are your 13?

I read the same thing, but it was intended to help teams who would have been over the limit for that next year and was not intended to be an ongoig thing. If it were ongoing, Weber and Montana would have signed additional players over the past couple of years. The intent was to allow teams to keep the players they had already signed and not have to yank someone's grant. The NCAA expected everyone to be back in compliance with the 13 grant limit the very next year. It was a one shot deal and not an ongoing ordeal. No programs are over the 13 grant limit anywhere in the country. Has nothing to do with how much money they have.GrizWin99 said:oldrunner said:All scholarships count now.

Thanks for the input! I read that it is still up to the school to allow allocating scholarships above the limit. Do you know if this has changed or am I reading it incorrectly? I will attach the paragraph and link to article.

“ Ultimately, it’s the school’s and coach’s decision to decide if they want to extend their scholarship limit to include fifth year seniors or transfers. The determining factor is whether or not a school can afford to give scholarships over the maximum.”
