I just posted this in the Slammin' Sammy thread and it also aplies here. He can't get a mediical redshirt:

quote:
He can't get a medical redshirt bc he already has a redshirt. The other option is to get a waiver of the 5 year rule. This would happen at the end of his collegiate eligibility, not now. Also, this is generally only issued if they have missed 2+ years due to injury (ie. Pittman) so Sam would not be a good candidate unless he were to miss another year due to injury or something


This is not true. Loston got a medical redshirt last year.

Yes, but Loston didn't redshirt the year before.

Basically, you can't redshirt twice (for whatever reason) unless those two years missed were due to injury and then you have to petition to be granted eligibility to play another year.
