....from 110 to 120, for 2024, but will consider to make this permanent.

262 FCS/FBS programs. Not every school will jump up to the 120, so it probably won't be a one for one with 2620 additional kids in camp (can we even call it camp anymore without 2 and 3 a day practices?). Initially I think this is a good thing, but I also see it as watering down the talent pool at FCS schools. The Bigger schools will offer PWO spots to kids that would normally go to FCS...and now they can offer 10 more spots. I'm not saying I think this is a completely bad thing for the FCS schools, but if the FBS boys want it, it'll happen regardless of the negative impact to us lowly FCS guys!

Just another mechanism to create greater separation between the haves and have nots. One of a long line of policies pushed by the powers that be.
