If college football season doesn't happen, NFL likely will play on Saturdays
Bad news: There may be no college football on Saturdays this year.profootballtalk.nbcsports.com
I would bet the players would be against this. They prefer just every Sunday as far as I know.
Don’t forget get Monday and Thursday.
Saturday is no leap! If their are smart they would bubble up by geography and play 2 games Monday/Thursday each and the rest split between sat/sun
Yeah but think of someone like Burrow. 2 years ago he wasn't even discussed as a top QB, then he went on to have one of the greatest college seasons by a QB ever. Imagine that season never happens and he still goes into the draft. No way he goes #1It is unknown how the NCAA will handle eligibility for players that opt out or play in a conference that cancels. That has no effect on NFL draft eligibility. That is 3 years removed from HS. You don’t have to actually play, go to college, or be on a team or any kind to become eligible, it’s strictly time gated.
That will suck for hundreds of potential NFL prospects if they cancel the college season. Think if you were a highly touted freshman, trying to establish yourself, and then all the sudden they tell you there is no football this year, sorry bud. How does that work? Is he a freshman next year? What about a senior who is on the bubble draft wise and a solid final season is what he needs to propel him into being picked, or go from a 3rd rounder to a first? Does he get to play again?
I imagine they would, But then how does that effect the 2021 freshman? If your a 5 star recruit QB I imagine you wouldnt want to ride the bench in favor of a guy who got to play an extra carona season. Its going to be a clusterfuck.
I mean, his year in school should probably be related to where his scholastic work is. If he sits out the football season -and- the scholastic year, then yeah he should probably be a freshman. If he sits out the football season (because no football) but move forward in scholastic work to be considered a sophomore? Then he's a sophomore. If that -isn't- the case? The college stuff should admit they give zero fucks about education and just want those College Football Dollars and completely do away with the schooling aspect. And then pay the kids because that is clearly the only reason they are there.
Eligibility starts the second you take a class and doesn't stop. This for everyone and not just an athlete. I don't know if they will make an exception with covid. Only reason I know this is because out of high school I didn't want to play sports anymore so I took a class at the local community college out of high school. Dropped out and then a few years later I missed football so I walked on at the community college but I only had 1 year of eligibility left so I only played 1 year of football. I couldn't play anymore.
