Five years of eligibility? What will fifth-year seniors be called? Super-Seniors?

So it appears that the term "redshirt" will be reduced to the ashbin of history?

To be fair...a ton of kids that don't play sports are in the 5 year plan...just a 5th year senior like always. This is a better system for all sports.
Hell, let’s just have no limits….i mean non-athletes can go back to school for as many years as they want and since I read all the time from some that athletes should be no different than other students (although they get far more from a school than non-athletes do), then open up the opportunity for them to make it a career.
I don't understand why anyone is angry about this
"Once the college eligibility clock starts, the athlete will be allowed five seasons of competition over five years."
This is being done for obvious reasons

We have an eighth year senior on our current roster. What do we call him? AARP senior?
Took me six years for my BS, three for my MS, 11 for my Ph.D. Some guys need time!
Only couches in West Virginia.No more shirt-burning?
Did you slow play it for the NIL money?
No, for the hot chicks. Math groupies, dang.
No red shirting!
No college football!
Just a sign of the times.
The abandon collesiums of an ancient civilization.
But there will be wrestling on the white house lawn
Perhaps women's wrestling in the mud pit.
Life is grand!

I know it's sarcasm...it's your anger over the change saying that they might as well have no limits based on this change. I didn't think you wanted no limits...do you understand what you write?
Does this mean Will Fries’s redshirt is dog sh*t???I miss college athletics.
doesn't exasperation generally coexist or lead to anger?I thought it was more exasperation than either anger or sarcasm.
I don’t think it does.doesn't exasperation generally coexist or lead to anger?
IMO it leads more towards apathy.
It’s not anger, hard to get angry about something that really means nothing to me…I just disagree with it. Does that clarify it enough for you?
Whatever they can do to mess up college sports, they’re obviously going to do, so it’s just acceptance at this point.doesn't exasperation generally coexist or lead to anger?
But you're not angry about it...just being sarcastic.
The fact anyone thinks this isn't beneficial is ludicrous. It's to eliminate the 6th and 7th year guys
Let’s eliminate the fifth year guys too, that would be beneficial in my opinion.
The intent of a message board is to discuss things you don't care about? Interesting...
I never said it would happen…like I said, anything that makes the sport worse, we can count on them doing.
