If you thought 85 scholarships wasn’t enough for college football, get ready for a major change.
On Tuesday, the power conference commissioners finalized new roster-size limits that will allow for athletic departments to distribute more scholarships and resources to athletes, as schools are permitted to offer scholarships to the entirety of their rosters, according to Yahoo Sports’s Ross Dellenger.
As a result, football is expected to see an increase in scholarships from 85 to a maximum of 105, which may only take into effect at the start of the season, as is the case currently.
Additionally, scholarship spots for softball and volleyball, which are each currently 12, are expected to increase to 25 and 18, respectively.
