But, if true and all get another year, this could have more of an impact on recruiting than expected. It still seems the fair and right thing to do... but may certainly make life interesting for the next few incoming classes.
Why would it be only seniors? Everyone has been affected. The way I look at this: there will be more talented players than ever on each roster, at each level. Guys may need to transfer down a level, depending on what’s coming in behind them. But, at least guys will have that option (possibly). The top guys from top programs will be lost to the draft as usual. Other division 1 programs may become more competitive with higher RPI programs. It could make for a very fun to watch season. Domino effect for each level.
