- A team can have no more than 85 players on scholarship.
- A team cannot sign more than 25 players to a scholarship during a class year. Teams can count early enrollee's to the prior year's class if they did not hit the 25 number the year prior.
CURRENT STATUS
Georgia Tech has 75 scholarship players scheduled to be on the roster as of 1/10/25 who count against the 85 scholarship cap, plus nine freshmen who will join this summer. Tech needs to be at 105 players total by the start of school in August. GT has 18 seniors this season, which means there are currently 25+ available scholarships for the Class of 2026, including incoming transfers prior to that season. This does not account for future attrition that will take place due to early graduation, medical hardship, NFL, transfers, etc. However, the NCAA is lifting the 85 cap in the future to a 105 roster cap.
