Ok, I will be the contrarian. I think freshmen being incorporated right away with the varsity leads to a much better team atmosphere and if anything is more helpful for them getting comfortable within the university and the program

There were so many freshman players that were never really committed to playing that be end of Sept half the guys were checked out anyway. From my perspective the only thing freshman football accomplished was to further limit the interactions between older and younger players which in my opinion greatly benefit today’s first and second year players

Oh, and in general the coaching was a joke

Author: Ivy Inquisitor (5th Covid year) [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 19:52:51 06/19/24 Wed The 5th year was only for seniors that missed their fourth season due to the League canceling all sports for the 2020-21 “Covid” year. In order to be granted a “5th” the student had to be accepted into graduate school. I don’t remember if the grad eligibility was limited for their undergraduate school.
