This year's Big10 and Pac12 recruits will have to decide to commit to schools with uncertainty hanging over those schools existing players. Will they play in the spring? Will they have to play again in the fall? Will the recruits have to wait longer to see the field?

It may all just be a wash, but any conference that plays in the fall will have a leg up on those that don't. Of course there are risks too.
