Can Kansas's Nightmare Scholarship Situation Convince Anyone to Change the Rules of Recruiting?

Interesting read for those who like getting in the weeds... Could Kansas's roster crunch prompt a rule change?

Can’t adidas find them some players?

This reminds me of the wacky idea I dreamed up over the winter. To help bring a little more up and down mobility to FBS teams, we could give the option to the bottom 1/4 to have 5 extra scholarships based on some formula. And/or full exception on two or three players from the sit a year for non grad transfers rule.

Two areas that be tinkered with to help the doormats.

So the talk is to change the rule to 35 kids per year, but with a 2 year cap at 50. Well that is better than what we have now...but they also need to address the problem with kids signing up and then never coming on campus. Kids that sign and never arrive (or stay physically on campus less than perhaps 6 weeks) should not count against the cap as well.

No I don’t care about Kansas or any other school. That’s their problem we have enough problems of our own. When did @ny other school care about UConns problem?

So Nell, you’ve resorted to wandering around the BY bumping threads from August?

Good quote from the article. Would someone please send this to Randy?

"Recruit well for two or three cycles and a program could go from a joke to respectability."

Sorry. Don’t read it. You all know I’m nuts.

I don't think Inspector Clouseau could find Kansas enough good players to be competitive.

Would you feel bad if I told you that I had a heart attack middle of Aug and spent some time in hospital?

Nell @ 92y/o you can do whatever makes you happy and thrive.

... just thought it was strange that you were responding to threads in the beginning of October from mid-August.

Yes it is and I’m only 84. Can’t wait till I’m 92 and see what foolish things I’ll post. Maybe I should start a list now so I won’t forget.

Aw hell only 84... I take it all back. Stop being a cantankerous old bat!

giving a team a reason to lose a game is a bad idea. Giving several teams a reason to lose is even worse.
