Most play a fall and spring schedule against JUCOs and have training etc. If the NCAA extends additional eligibility to more than just current seniors, rosters are going to be jammed up. I could see current 2021s and 2022s reclassifying with PG etc and just planning on going Post Grad after HS.
The sub varsity kids are paying full boat. Don't buy for a second that their first round draft picks or national championship football team has kids paying 70k to go there.
IMG is what it is. But for every world class athlete they get, there are 5 more who aren't. The average players subsidize it for the elite talent. Same model for the elite travel programs.
Right. I'm assuming that players who are considering post grad as a solution to the problems caused both by losing a recruiting cycle and crowded NCAA rosters aren't 1st round draft picks. It doesn't make sense for the kinds of players we are talking about to spend $70k with IMG.
