Former UConn Football Star, Champion for Fathers rights, mental health advocate Chris Bellamy is here for A Huskies Health. We talk about College athletes who continue receiving extra years of eligibly and the domino effect it will have. High school recruits are struggling because there are less scholarships available. Recruiting classes are smaller for them with everyone using the transfer portal. Top talent who would be snatched up 8 years ago will be reclassing, attending junior college or prep school in the hopes of being signed in the future. Others are playing at lower levels, trying to prove their worth and move up. Mental health for athletes will become a crisis. Kids want to stay in college longer because in most cases, they make more money than they would as an NFL rookie. Chris believes a storm is coming, when the money is gone, players who don't last in the NFL are not prepared for life.
