NCAA to restore PSU Scholarships
http://www.ncaa.org/wps/wcm/connect/publ...holarships

Quote:Due to Penn State University’s continued progress toward ensuring athletics integrity, the NCAA Executive Committee is gradually restoring football scholarships the university lost because of sanctions more than a year ago.

Quote:Beginning next academic year (2014-15), five additional initial scholarships will be restored to the university’s football team. This amount will continue to increase.

PSU will have 20 initial and 75 overall scholarships for 2014-2015, 25 initial and 80 overall scholarships in 2015-2016, and then the full complement of 25 initial and 85 overall starting in 2016-2017. I guess they were successful in starting the clock on the initial limits of 65 this season, as O'Brien noted prior to the UCF game that he only had 62 on scholarship. Not sure how they go from 65 to 75 with there only being an increase of 5, though.

They could also consider potential mitigation of the postseason ban in the future as well.
