What's the 20 hour rule?
College players are forbidden to participate in more than 20 hours of activities related to their sport. They can lift weights and such, but cannot practice, watch film, etc for more than a total of 20 hours. Not an issue in the NFL. Big time issue in college. Special teams play has tanked since the inception of that rule. Who has time for coaching special teams any more?
Michigan got in hot water for the coach completely disregarding the rule. They were going at it 40 to 50 hours per week.
