    How Much do you have to play to letter in Div 1 football?
    Asking for a friend. Said he played in early 2000s but when I looked him up I found he never lettered for the school.

    Is it possible to get playing time but not letter

        Yes.

        The requirements for earning a varsity letter in a sport vary by school and by sport. For example, I had a roommate who was a Div 1 football player in college and he had to play in 1/3 of the quarters played by the team for the season. If he was in 1 play for a quarter, it counted.

        A high school friend played for Div 2 CFB team and earned a letter for playing in 1 game even it was 1 play. I think the school wanted to juice its lettermans numbers to make the team seem better in subsequent years.

        The rules were different for basketball but I never learned what the requirement was.

          Generally speaking (all are different) its 1 of the following:

          Participate in 90% of 1st team practice
          Participate in 50% of total games
          Participate in 100% of games as manager or student assistant

          This was at Macalester in MN d3 I played 2 years

              You're not asking for a friend. You're asking for yourself regarding a friend.
