In reply to: Scholarship limits next thing out the door posted by ryND
As it stands, because of the free transfer and the yearly limits, there are a bunch of teams that have several scholarship spots they literally cannot use, per the rules, without giving them to walk-ons. Which is great for the walk-ons but not as much for incoming high school recruits.
Makes my day when a kid gets a pay-off and the recognition from team mates for the hard work he's put in.
We need to free up more scholarships to give to more players who we can just run off if they aren't good enough.
That's just the scenario teams are in right now.
It's been Nick Saban's take for awhile, especially the latter part.
