Alabama Crimson Tide: NCAA decision could create roster mayhem in ’21 season
Building the Alabama Crimson Tide, 2021 roster will be no easy task. On Friday the NCAA approved giving fall sports athletes “an extra year of eligibility” and it is not contingent on the student-athletes competing this fall. Part of the COVID-impacted change is the student-athletes will also be allowed an additional year in their NCAA career window.
A quick concern is the 85 scholarship rule cannot coexist with the new rule. Nicole Auerbach stated there will be no roster limit impact.
