College football players could soon be allowed to play in up to four games and maintain their redshirt if the NCAA approves a rules proposal that's been in the works for years.
American Football Coaches Association executive director Todd Berry, formerly the coach at ULM, said he expects the NCAA Division I Council to vote on the proposal (2017-17) from the ACC, which would go into effect Aug. 1, either late Tuesday or Wednesday.
"Our coaches are obviously extremely hopeful," Berry told AL.com after having met with the Division I Council in Indianapolis on Tuesday.
