The portal is going remain all-time crazy for the next 2/3 years, as it relates to roster management. The 85 limit and no extra COVID adjustments from are going to continue an insane situation.
Just some examples on NDs roster ;
Drew Pyne entered the year with 4 years of eligibility (more than Buchner even)- could graduate with 3 left.
JD Bertrand had played in 28 games entering the season, is a sophomore eligibility wise.
This could be Marist Liufau’s 1st season counted with a injury waiver. ‘19 redshirt ‘20 doesn’t exist ‘21 injury. Was his 4th fall camp.
Zeke Corell - 2 more left after this year
- goes on and on
Assuming this situation is everywhere - where’s the room for all the players if they want to continue to play (and are better than incoming freshman would be at a MAC school)
Might be a few more BYU like rosters .
