Now that there's NIL money and the players can probably get paid more than 99% of them would get from the NFL before they are 22 years old:
1. Allow any player in any sport to turn pro right out of HS.
2. Any player who signs a FBS LOI and begins school has to stay for 4 seasons after HS. Clearly it would be less for JUCO players.
3. Any player cut from a sport (unless for misconduct) who received a scholarship gets to keep it and just be a student until graduation without the scholarship counting against the limit.
4. 25 limit per year for teams finishing in the Top 10 (CFP ratings) in football. For everyone else, no limit per year.
5. Stay with the 85 limit for football. After cuts, you'll probably have 130 on campus on scholarship, but only 85 would be able to play.
6. Hard 5 years eligibility for all athletes.
