The NCAA is recommending that fall championships be moved to the spring and that all affected athletes who play fall sports get an extra year of eligibility.

They will still count against scholarship and roster limits however.

This applies regardless of how much you compete so wait for the conferences that have opted not to play fall football to scream from the rooftops if the ACC, SEC and Big 12, should they successfully play.

As always in 2020 though, everything that could be up in the air is.
