Question
I heard that if you play semi-pro you cannot play on a college football team is that true?
Johnny, hello. You need to go to the website of NCAA.com and look up the eligbility rules. You are correct if you received compensation for playing football professionally.
The college of your choice can make an official inquiry if you have a circumstance where the NCAA may waive the rule.
Have a great day!
