🗓️ NCAA President Charlie Baker Pushes Simpler Five-Year Eligibility Window
NCAA President Charlie Baker is advocating for a "five-in-five" standard for student-athlete eligibility to eliminate the current restriction of playing four seasons within a five-year span that features numerous waivers and redshirts. Under the concept, athletes would fall under an age-based window of five years to compete beginning upon high-school graduation or when they turn 19 years old. The Division I Cabinet discussed the idea last week and could vote on emergency legislation as soon as mid-May.
SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey expressed openness: "We need to have a defined period of eligibility. This six, seven, eight, nine-year stuff shouldn't be happening." The NABC also supports the urgency to stabilize eligibility and expressed general support for an age-based model, though they emphasized that coach perspective is vital to legislative reform. One proposal would cap an athlete's window on their 24th birthday, which would also limit international athletes' ability to come over at later dates with full eligibility. Read More
