The Bears enter the ACC with the college football ecosystem going through a major overhaul.
Quarterbacks Chandler Rogers and Fernando Mendoza take part in a drill during the first day of practice for the U.C. Berkeley Cal Bears football team on Wednesday, July 31, 2024, in Berkeley, Calif. The Golden Bears opened fall camp Wednesday and the mood at Memorial Stadium was what you’d expect.Cal, of course, is embarking on a new landscape this season, moving into the Atlantic Coast Conference after more than a century in the Pac-12.
College athletes will become full professionals as the NCAA distributes $2.78 billion in damages to anyone who played sports as far back as 2016. At the same time, schools will be allowed to pay players in all sports from a yearly pool of $23.1 million. Another outcome of the lawsuit is that football rosters will be limited to 105 athletes, all of whom would become eligible for scholarships. Currently there is no roster limit, but FBS schools can only carry 85 scholarship players.
