Episode Details

College football careers are stretching longer than ever, with players now staying in school for seventh or even eighth seasons thanks to new waiver rules and the extra year granted in 2020. Fans are tuning in to watch legends like Bear Alexander, Ty Thompson, and Justin Flowe — all Oregon Ducks past or present — carve out extended college careers, sometimes bouncing between schools and positions. While some joke about players like Bo Nix or Dillon Gabriel seeming to be in college forever, eligibility and contribution matter most. The Athletic’s “All-Geezer Team” highlights these veteran athletes, and with evolving regulations, the future of these long tenures remains uncertain — but for now, these players are rewriting the playbook on college longevity.
