Just hearing about this. College athletes now have 5 years of eligibility?
And if I follow, players who thought they had 4 years, can now return for a 5th year?
Crazy, right?

It appears the new rule allowing college players to play 5 years in 5 years (age based) would go into effect in 2027.
I disagree with the judge's decision -- allowing it to go into effect immediately -- will not cause chaos. Seems to me it definitely will cause chaos if a player who maxed out last season and does not play professionally, can suddenly return to the college roster.
