The NCAA has instituted a temporary Recruiting Dead Period and suspended all NLI signings
How it would affect the number of recruits for next year? If current seniors would not be counted against the 13 player limit, could Bradley could afford to carry additional players on next year's roster? If they could graduate this year, some or all of the seniors may not want to come back for an additional year.
That is correct. The way I have seen it described, for at least the one year, those seniors getting an extra year of eligibility may not count toward the scholarship limit, so most schools would have more than 13 scholarship players. That, combined with the one-time free transfer rule that could be adopted, would produce a wild west type of raiding of mid-major rosters by the bigger schools looking to grab players who could help them. It could affect Bradley.
A source said “those who exhausted eligibility will be exempted from counting against 13 scholarship limit."
That would appear to mean that Elijah Childs and Danya Kingsby could return to Bradley for a 5th year next year, even if there are no available scholarships.

Please let that happen!

I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.
Winter sport student-athletes who compete during 2020-21 in Division I will receive both an additional season of competition and an additional year in which to complete it, the Division I Council decided. The same flexibility was provided to student-athletes after the spring season was canceled in 2020 and the fall season was seriously impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Am I missing something? What about the non-seniors players? Will non-senior players also get an additional year? It may be a good thing that Bradley only has two seniors and the additional number of scholarships would be limited to two and be less expensive.
There is also a possibility that fall signees will not want to go to the school now that seniors will be allowed an additional year? Would they be let out of their NLI? It seems like this may open up more problems for the NCAA to deal with?
It would seem the rule applies to all players, not just seniors.
The problem that we should be worried about, and all mid-majors will worry about, is that the seniors will graduate, and effectively become "free agents". There will be a feeding frenzy for the most talented players. The NCAA has opened a can of worms that they cannot control.
The NCAA recruiting "dead period" has been in effect since March, 2020. It is being reported that the NCAA is finally ready to lift the recruiting restrictions imposed in the "dead period" starting June 1, 2021. If so, that will allow college coaches the ability to recruit off campus and do in-person evaluation and contact with recruits for the first time since March, 2020.
