A new proposed rule that would allow college football players to play up to four games and still redshirt is likely to pass, according to a recent FootballScoop report.
The report says that Todd Berry, the executive director of the American Football Coaches’ Association, has expressed confidence that the new rule will certainly become reality at the NCAA level eventually.
Berry said this vote has been unanimous across all levels two years in a row, which never happens. “This needs to pass and it needs to pass right now,” Berry said.
The report also included a poll from Mitch Sherman of ESPN which showed that administrators and student-athletes favor the rule change.
