In April, the G5 commissioners petitioned the NCAA

to waive the minimum requirement, for a period of four years. The NCAA rejected giving a blanket waiver but agreed to assess requests for individual schools.

As for football, schools do not have to offer 85 scholarships. The NFL operate with a 53-player roster; the colleges could do likewise.

I would normally agree with this, but State's are going to be cutting budgets.

In football if you offer 65 or less you fall to the Championship sub division.
