Prop 48 is misleading here...Prop 16 is the NCAA eligibility model.

McKinley pair to sign
McKinley has two players signing Division I letters, but they will have to sit out a year and pay their own way as freshmen. Disi Alexander and Morgan Williams will go to Toledo as Proposition 48 student-athletes. If they make the grade as freshmen, they will be put on full scholarships.
?Disi has a tremendous amount of raw athleticism,? McKinley head coach Brian Cross said. ?He can run and jump and he hits. He has all those things. He had a pretty good football awareness, too. It?s a good opportunity for him to get exposed to another part of the state. That experience should be good for him as a student and an athlete.
?I don?t think (Williams has) fully developed as a football player because he?s shared time with basketball. He hasn?t gotten fully into the weight room and hit the weights. There is a great amount of football ahead of him, and the best football is ahead of him.?
