5/8...and done.
Looks like the NCAA is about the eliminate the 5/8 rule.About time. The current rule allows schools to offer no more than five scholarships in one year or eight in two years.
When multiple players leave early for the NBA (or transfer elsewhere), schools are then unable to pursue new recruits. A number of programs - Arizona among them - have been recently hurt by this provision.
