## Resource

College sports just got a major shakeup: the NCAA’s new five-year eligibility rule means no more redshirting, and true freshmen are hitting the field sooner than ever. Starting in 2025-26, athletes get exactly five seasons to play — whether they enroll full-time or turn 19, whichever comes first. Junior college transfers now have up to three years of prep before their clock starts, giving more veteran players a strategic edge. Coaches will scramble to get younger talent involved early — especially on the line — as every season counts. With NIL deals already reshaping athlete decisions, this rule tightens the window on college careers, making playing time even more competitive.
