We can thank The Bear for this and his track scholarships. No?

He's the reason if you are on any scholarship it counts towards football, so if they are on academic, honors, bell honors, anything like that it counts against the 85 total.
You'll see it lowered to 80 and the NCAA is expected to push for a rule similar to the Big-10/12 where if you have 80 on scholarship 15 graduating you can only sign 20 not 25. The oversigning days are numbered, it is being too abused right now and the heat is on.
