You compound your cluelessness with even more stupid posts.
You write things, and then seem to forget that you wrote them. Yes, you criticized the rules. Yes, you can't seem to research the rules, so you ask others to provide you with citations. Then you seem to read things, yet you can't understand what you just read.
If there is any "rule change", it is simply to address OVERSIGNING. You can't tease 50 kids with LoIs and then hope that 20 of them fail to qualify. The rule says that if you sign a kid who FAILS TO QUALIFY, then you can't just enroll another player later.
Miami has not had that problem. The IC rules are basically what they always have been. Here's an article that clearly describes the early enrollment issue, and if you don't believe the author, you can ask him for an NCAA rules citation.

The truth is, there are plenty of posters on this board who act like they know how to apply this rule, but don't. They also don't know who counts as an IC (it includes transfers, late signees, etc.). People continue to think we have all these early enrollment spots to use, but we don't. I tried to explain to people that we gave up IC spots when we self-reduced on scholarships before the NCAA hit us with the final penalties, but people forget these things.
Anyhow, we aren't going to sign 28 or 30. Maybe 26 or 27. Probably less.
The new rule is going to insure that every program steers clear of academically risky kids (unless they are 5 stars), and there is probably going to be a hot "Ray Lewis market" to get available kids in May or June who eventually manage to qualify.
Fock it.
