On Thursday, Michigan head football coach Jim Harbaugh posted an open letter to the “football community” proposing an overhaul of the college eligibility rules of when is the right time to turn professional. As noted by Adam Schefter, Harbaugh’s proposal is one that empowers the student-athlete.
Of note is that Harbaugh wants college players to be able to leave for the NFL after playing one season of college football.
Jim Harbaugh wants to overhaul the rules of college eligibility of when is the right time to turn pro and enter the draft, as this letter shows. Baseball and hockey already have changed, and basketball is about to change, and Harbaugh wants to empower the student-athlete. pic.twitter.com/lQLb10H8SR
