Or extra year make it like this never happened

what if those seniors declare for the draft and are playing in the NBA already?

a lot of them need to get on with their life

but spring sport players will prob have an extra year of elibility if they choose to stay.

its just a game

It’s a very small percentage of seniors who go to play pro. I think they r allowed 6 years of free school to get a degree. It seems like lots of coaches want this

could be interesting. not sure how it works when teams are already planned with new freshmen coming in also.

yep, another good point

there are only so many scholarships allowed. IF the NCAA says anyone that wants an extra year of eligibility then you might have

team A) with 8 seniors and they all want to come back... meanwhile they have 8 new scholarship fresh/tranfers coming in.. now you either have people getting jammed up or you allow a super team.

team B) with 2 seniors and 1 leaves and 1 wants to come back.... So Team A has 7 more scholarship players for the new season?

I feel bad for Dayton & Rutgers. They are having once in a lifetime years.

Also they gave Yale the Ivy League championship because they had the best record. Although Harvard had lots of their best players out and they were finally coming back before the tourney. Oh well.

It’s an interesting theory

The ivy league never had a tournament they only started doing one two years ago. So this year's results was not vastly different from previous years
