Mike Gundy (Probably) Nailed a Prediction on a Major College Football Trend

Eleven months ago, I wrote about a reckoning in college football developing in the mega-transfer era and why Mike Gundy — as usual — saw a storm brewing before anyone else.

Now it appears a formality that Gundy may formally be proven a soothsayer in short order. (Mark Emmert is retiring in 2023, by the way. Gundy for pres? Who says no? WHO SAYS NO?)

The NCAA is reportedly considering doing away with its limit of 25 scholarship signees for each football recruiting class, according to new reporting from Sports Illustrated, something Gundy long ago envisioned would be necessary to survive in this new era where one-time transfers don’t have to sit, where NIL spurs player movement and where players are empowered moreso than ever as quasi professionals at the college level.
