five in five years eligibility proposed

Postby muskieman » Thu Apr 23, 2026 5:47 pm

NCAA president Charlie Baker is pushing a sweeping 'five-in-five' eligibility reform that would give athletes five years from high school graduation or age 19 to compete, replacing the current four-seasons-in-five-years rule.

Under the concept, athletes both domestically and internationally would “fall under an age-based window of five years to compete beginning upon high-school graduation or when they turn 19 years old.” Baker said, “The goal here was to come up with something that was a lot simpler and sort of familiar.”

A formal vote could come as soon as mid-May, with potential implementation the following month

if NCAA grants everyone a 5th year of eligibility - including this senior class.

“It would be pure chaos. Most teams have used 80% of their NIL. Next year makes sense. Now don't get me wrong, I would love to have my seniors back but our NIL is just about finished. … Unless Mike (Repole) wins the Derby lol.”

Flip could have another year, but Tre would probably not. Maybe Flip would play for split the pot percentage
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.
