Age based rule to be implemented

With the new 5 to play 5 there will be less scholarships or roster spaces available but those kids will begin to fall off a year later. I would also assume that this frees up schools to re-recruit 27 kids to replace other 27 kids.

But wouldn’t that just screw the 28 kids? I’m having trouble seeing how less yearly roster turnover doesn’t hurt HS recruiting as a whole in perpetuity. If it was 2 to play 2, HS recruiting would be crazy, if it was 10 to play 10, HS recruiting would be much less common. I guess the total number of spots stays the same, so maybe it works out somehow.

There will be minimal turnover year 1, but those kids that would have exhausted eligibility will do so year 2.

And be replaced by the 27 kids who didn’t get the kid the year before? Do you see what I’m saying at least?

Possible, but the clock starts with enrollment or age 19, so those 27 kids that bounce to 28 may only get 4 years. The first year would be the worst and it will begin to balance out moving forward.
