Yep, everyone is given another year...if they choose to take it. We could be LOADED next season! Of course, every other team gets the same benefit.

And still with the 85 scholarship limit so there will be some fall off I’m sure.

Talent wise we're in a good position nearly everywhere. The only guys that I think we would really benefit from having another "senior year" are Todd, McClain, and Geiger. Maybe B.J.... but we know Vidal is a beast, and were pretty deep there already.

By everyone, if you mean relevant playmakers, we'd have 7 or 8 guys that we could retain, but that's still asking a lot. To reiterate, I think we need those three receivers the most. They will be very hard to replace. Probably would want Bradshaw too. There are only two seniors on the defensive two deep, so that unit could be really, really, good next year, without having to retain any seniors. Only two seniors combined on the two deep for running backs, quarterbacks, and offensive line. Even without being able to retain eligibility, this group coming up may be the most experienced group we've ever had at Troy.

To any player that is thinking about leaving school to begin their careers and make a little money.... DON'T DO IT! Stay at Troy as long as you can! Adulthood can wait!

This team gets a lot of players back next season, and can win the SBC and and even more... we just can't have any too players transfer.

I think of everyone on scholarship were to stay (and keep their scholly), we would probably only be able to sign 7-8.

Basically we will have 85 scholarships. The add on seniors do not count in that scholarship amount. Money wise is all they cost. They can stay due to covid IF they remain amateurs. Summer camp can open with 110. So if Troy has some money for (say 4 receivers) we could do that and still sign a full compliment. When the NCAA added football they were assigned the rules that last spring played sports were given. At that time they really did not think anyone would be playing football all the way thru. They also had no idea how to account for opportunities availed to seniors etc. So as of now 85 + add on seniors (that may stay scholarship or otherwise as long as still amateurs.)

It is ironic that with as few a seniors that we have other than at the receivers this added year could hurt us more than other teams. Often would look out at our D and see everyone on field as underclassman
