Sounds like these NCAA rules don't happen until 2025-2026 so there's a one year reprieve before they kick in. With the cap at 18 for both mens and womens programs it will be interesting to see how the new rules affect the recruiting landscape.
I think the men's team will be a new thing because they will have an expansion of 13.5 full scholarships to give instead of 4.5 scholies to be broken up into halves. On the women's side, the smalls will be on full ride since for now, when it is adopted, the walk-on players are not a thing. ...if it is adopted. |

Am I missing something? Would we not have 18 possible scholarships to give out if we wanted? So there is decent amount we can still give out if we really wanted to boost the roster significantly? They can't give out what doesn't currently exist. Hawai'i WVB is funded for twelve scholarships. There is no authorization or funding in place for more. The House settlement isn't yet approved, and if/when it is, there could be more lawsuits and challenges to implementation. The current settlement proposal doesn't require non-P4 schools to elect roster caps and additional scholarships. The UH AD is on record reflecting on how they might apply it at Hawai'i — fully, partially, or not at all. Partially, would be what some refer to as tiering of sports within the school portfolio. IOW cuts to some programs to free up cash support for others. That or the AD's bended knee to the State and University begging for plus-ups lasting far into the future. It could be months or years before the landscape is settled enough for plans to be drafted, approved, budgets set, tiering of the athletic portfolio, and cash in hand to support University and State approved program changes. The rumor is Even Ohio St., with one of the largest athletic budgets in the country, is worriedly searching for the cash flow to support all the proposed changes. I had come across an article about that somewhere. But there are even talks about mounting more of a charge to cut non-revenue producing sports in order to have the cash sharing stay strictly to the revenue sports, correct? |

Just announced by UH AD that 4 football programs are leaving the MWC for the PAC 2 in 2 years. Hopefully our football program and the remainder of the MWC will land on their feet and survive. I do hate when this happens. I only mention this because football is the feeder program that financially supports our other athletic programs. Some BYU pundits on a fan board want Hawai'i to be in the Big 12. Entertaining thought. www.cougarboard.com/board/message.html?id=33703730#:~:text=The%20Big%2012%20approaches%20Hawaii,rights%20for%20all%20those%20games. Thank you for linking this! That would be an interesting proposal. |

I feel like depending on where they try and implement something like this, you see a a war mounted in response like when they cut those Stanford programs. |

Though college sports is slowly turning into its professional counterparts. |

I just find it odd that there is no one of prominence speaking out against the direction things are going. Like NIL, the portal, scholarship reallocation are a few things but someone has to be able to step in and stop programs from being gutted and youth athlete dreams from being crushed. |

True, maybe we aren’t far off from the days of nationwide student athlete protests being what causes a shift |
