NCAA Proposes to cut schollies to 80

I don't see any way this is a bad thing. And I suspect it si part of the quid pro quo to allow the additonal 'cost of attendance" to be added to the scholarships they have. Likely an attempt to buy some votes. Back in the days of 105 scholarships, the big name schools would simply stockpile guys even if they had no intent of using them simply to insure that the other schools couldn't get them.

This will be good for programs like UConn. The Alabama's, Florida's, Florida State's, Penn State's of the world can't stockpile kids. These kids will have to turn elsewhere for their dream. Better to be on the field at UConn than the 85th player at the University of Texas or USC, IMO. And these kids would be good players to boot. The Oregons, Wisconsins, Oklahoma's, Nebraska's don't recruit anything less than the elite out of H.S. So spread that talent around and give those 81-85th kids the chance to compete.
