NCAA’s Bold Shift: How the New Age-Based Eligibility Could Rewrite College Sports Forever
There are no redshirts or extensions to the five-to-play-five model, so players who don’t get playing time as a young player will not be able to get an extension on their eligibility like they could previously. Some of the only exceptions are for pregnancy and military service.
There will also no longer be a window for older players to come back and play college sports. The window for your five years of eligibility comes when you turn 19 years old or when you enroll in college, whichever comes earliest. Say goodbye to the days where you would see players almost 30 years old take the field or the court.
