@PABaseball posted:The roster limit was always 35. Bringing it back to 34 really should not be an issue. I get it, they upped the roster limits and now there need to be cuts.
To get upset about that is shortsighted. What people should be yelling at the clouds about is the fact that the NCAA (and society) made a bunch of reactionary decisions in 2020. Everybody gets to play, everybody gets to stay. There are now 5x All Americans in a league where you only have 4 years of eligibility. Make that make sense.
In a very short period of time we saw an extra year of eligibility added, the MLB draft get shortened by 88%, roster expansion, penalty free transfers, blanket waivers, NIL deals, now roster reduction, and 100% scholarships for those who can afford it.
This whole situation was caused by those who preached doomsday in 2020 and pushed for what was wanted and not what made sense. It is now the wild west. The people got what they wanted and they don't like it. The parallels to the world beyond sports are eerily similar.
Sure, but the issue with over recruiting in the fall existed prior to Covid. There have been numerous changes since then. Some related to Covid and more recent ones related to the House settlement and new roster, scholarship, and NIL guidelines. With the world changing, is it possible to have a system where kids aren't getting screwed in the fall? Even the families that "do their homework"?
