Sophomore Rushing UT

Are they allowed to do that? I thought with upperclassman quotas/free stuff, it was take upperclassmen or don't take anyone.

I THINK she means that an open-minded group that would usually give say 5 bids to upperclassmen (out of the normal quota) will now just fill the normal quota with Freshman and use the upperclass quota for the sophmores that they would normally take
(numbers are entirely made up)
so before:
50 total bids
45 freshman
5 soph

now:
50 bids + 5 upperclass bids
50 freshman
5 soph

At least this is the way I see it.
