Re: Projected 2019 2 Deeps -

If my count is correct, the updated roster has 87 players. The commit list is right at 30, with the potential for a few more. That puts the roster at north of 115 players for next season. I realize that many of the recruits receive partial scholarships or no money at all in some cases, but doesn't that roster size mean that some cutting will need to happen ?

Do we know if there is anyone in the transfer pool? I think we'll see more attrition after spring semester. It seems kids will see where the pecking order is and make decisions based on the depth chart. I could see us losing a couple corners, QB's, and wide receivers.

I think the relevant NCAA rule allows for 105 players to be on a roster before the first day of class or the first game, whichever comes first. But once school begins, there is no limit.

I believe a roster size limit was implemented by the coaches (not by NCAA but by admin) last year after spring ball and that is why there were post-spring ball cuts.

Yes. Last year the SDSU admin clamped down and forced the coaches to get the roster down to 105. As Bulldog said, there will likely be a few cuts and transfers out. They may also hold a couple of the PWOs to the spring semester.

I believe the FCS Level has 62 scholarships to divide up amongst 85 athletes. The FBS Level has 85 scholarships to divide up amongst 95 athletes. There is a fall camp roster size limit, must be 105 based off the above comments. Once school starts there is no NCAA roster size limit that I know of. There are travel roster size limits though, whether those are NCAA or Conference based rules.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in the hayday of Nebraska's walk on program, their roster sizes were like 200 once school started?

FCS is 63 and can be spread out among 85 guys. FBS is 85 but they aren't allowed to offer partials as it is considered a "head count sport". MBB & WBB are the same in that regard at the D1 level.

Anymore updates today?? Anyone still healing from anything nagging at the end of the year or postseason surgeries?? Will Eck be installing a different offense? Same terminology but different philosophy? What about D?

Seconded. How does Gibbs look after a couple practices w the ones? Is he splitting time with the ones?

Any news from spring ball?

Re: Projected 2019 2 Deeps -

It got overlooked with all the basketball news yesterday, but WR Isaiah Hill tweeted that he has entered his name into the NCAA transfer portal and that his recruitment is open.

For how big this spring is for the qb position this is by far the quietest spring ball I can remember. Goodness not a squeak of news.
