This used to be a case or two of this more frequently. Chris Weinke, Quan Cosby, Mark Farris and Austin Aune are guys who’ve gone from professional baseball back to college to play football.

Since they went straight to pro baseball, their eligibility clock never started. And since they weren’t paid to play football, the NCAA still considers them an amateur.

Beating that "5 to play 5" deadline with its age limit is my guess.  College NIL beats getting a 9-5 job.

Not sure why people are acting like this is a new thing. Completely different than the other situations we have seen over the last 3-4 years
