Yes! Academic support is there for them every step of the way. If they are able to compete then they should have the option to compete. Remember why Marshall needed to play freshmen back in the day??

Blocking freshmen from being eligible to play isn't the response to combat the feeder system into the pro's. They are adults and limiting their choices is the wrong approach.

Antiquated philosophy. College athletes at most schools have excellent academic support and are set up to succeed. I think in basketball, the JUCO system would florish. But, it might destroy the Calipari model, which may not be a terrible thing.

Because that is rediculous

We have had and settled this debate already. some of these "Kids" come out of Programs that would rival some small colleges. Freshman can be Red Shirted if they are not ready.

Recruiting impact plus if a freshmen can play let them. They earn it through skill and work.

Trae Taylor isn’t in this class. Poor Dayton Raiola is taking unnecessary heat for not being his brother but he’s great. Somehow, they need to find that one guy in every class that puts himself out there to draw in other recruits. They just haven’t found that dude yet in this class and it shows.
