for everyone around the country because of the potential 5 by 5 rule from the NCAA, which would give all athletes five years of eligibility over five years. I think many are unsure if players from 2025-26 will be grandfathered in, which complicates things. From ESPN last week: "The Division I Cabinet, the most influential powerbrokers in collegiate sports, could vote on the measure in May and it could be implemented as early as June. That means college basketball players who were seniors this season may get another year to play. That's potentially problematic for teams that have tried to finalize their rosters now that the transfer portal is closed and most of the key available players have committed to teams." Every coach in the country is dealing with this and contemplating this right now. Imagine if Tobi Lawal magically has another year of eligibility? North Carolina's Seth Trimble? On the women's side, Kilah Freelon or Mel Daley? UNC's added four players. UVa's added ... zero. (Obviously, has a lot more coming back than VT.) Here's what the ACC looks like: - 8 adds: Pitt - 7 adds: BC* - 6 adds: UofL - 5 adds: FSU, GT*, NCSU*, Cuse*, WF - 4 adds: Cal, Miami, UNC, ND - 3 adds: Clem, SMU, VT - 2 adds: Duke - 0 adds: Stan, UVa * - New coach VT's close to the middle. But also, can be tough to know who VT is pursuing. All three commits in Atok, Heide and Elohim were pretty quiet, under-the-radar recruitments. So, VT is attacking; just isn't necessarily all over the place on who the staff is targeting. But then you factor in the potential eligibility changes and it would be pure chaos if that passes. Just the uncertainty of it all across the board, even for coaches trying to assemble a roster for next season. Just some thoughts on how chaotic of a time it currently is across this landscape. Makes it even more difficult when you're trying to play moneyball throughout all of this.
