Suspensions burn a year of eligibility that cannot be covered by a redshirt.


This is bullshite. Completely untrue.

You can redshirt while in fricking prison.

You are 100% wrong. This is taken directly from the 2022-2023 NCAA By-Laws and is the applicable rule:

12.8.1.7.1.2 Circumstances Within Control. Circumstances that are considered to be within the control of
the student-athlete or the institution and cause a participation opportunity to be used include, but are not limited
to, the following:
(Adopted: 8/10/94, Revised: 10/12/95, 10/9/96, 7/30/10, 7/31/14)
(a) A student-athlete's decision to attend an institution that does not sponsor the student-athlete's sport, or
decides not to participate at an institution that does sponsor the sport;
(b) An inability to participate due to failure to meet institutional/conference or NCAA academic requirements, or
disciplinary reasons or incarceration culminating in or resulting from a conviction;
(c) Reliance by a student-athlete upon misinformation from a coaching staff member;
(d) Redshirt year;
(e) Ineligibility to participate as a result of a transfer year of residence or fulfilling a condition for restoration of
eligibility; and
(f) A student-athlete's lack of understanding regarding the specific starting date of the five-year period of
eligibility.
