Question regarding the scholarship limit

[huskercat]

While reading the article on Urban Meyer, I came across a factoid in the article stated that Muschamp is 14 scholarships short of the maximum of 85. Due to the fact a team can only give 25 scholarships a year, can a team like Forida, who are 14 scholarships short of the max, give more scholarships since they are under the maximum?

it depends on the conference rules

it depends on the conference rules

So......yes?

and...... I'm confused by your answer. It should not depend on the conference, when it comes to my exact question.

yes you can sign more than 25 players, but some conferences will not allow it while other conferences will allow it. They do have a say at the conference level.

Didn't Miss St sign like 134 players one year?

It wouldn't surprise me. I know Houston Nutt down the road at Ole Miss gave out 37 scholie offers one year. The next year (a couple years ago) the SEC put limits on scholarship numbers. The rule is called the Houston Nutt Rule. :lol:
