With a recent NCAA settlement - scholarship amounts will increase for many sports in the 25-26 season. The biggest increase may be baseball, with the current scholarship limit of 11.7 moving to 34 full ride scholarships. BUT - the roster limit is cut down from 40 to 34 as well. So basically - every baseball player can get a full ride, but 6 less players.
It is totally up to the school to increase their scholarships because of the investment required on the school part and the title IX implications. Anyone see any chance that UR increases baseball to 34? Or would they follow similar arguments that were used to add lacrosse and eliminate soccer and track that this would dumb down the student pool with more athletes, too much money, etc.
Or maybe UR just increases slightly to about 15 or 20 full rides? I can see this having a bad trickle effect within the school and mid-majors in general.
