With less than four months to go until the start of the 2025 season, college football teams still don’t know how many players they’ll be able to have on their rosters this year.
Coaches around the sport have been preparing for a limit of 105 players, a 15-player decrease from the previous limit of 120, but that roster limit might no longer go into effect in 2025. While it’s still expected that the House v. NCAA settlement that’s set to bring revenue sharing to college sports will be approved later this month, Judge Claudia Wilken said last week that she would not approve a settlement that immediately implemented roster limits resulting in athletes being cut from teams.
