So, what he did against NFL WRs in shorts and t shirt at Patrick Petersons camp for kids means he ready to play?? You really think those NFL WRs were going balls to the wall??
And thats what im trying to say. There is no reason to waste a year of eligibility on RR, considering his situation. Hes not even on campus yet and we play this saturday. So he wont be ready to play by around week 8. So you waste an entire year of eligibility for RR just to let him play a few weeks on Special Teams, which would be sparingly, and to strech his legs against Furman?? Not the smart thing to do.
And again, we already have enough talent at CB this year. Its not like RR was going to come in and be our full time starter at CB. We dont even know what type of player he is. We think he could potentially be a great 1. But, he hasnt even had a college practice. Hasnt had to tackle an SEC RB or shed a block against an SEC OL. And considering hes about 170lbs, he could use this year to bulk up, get the playbook down, and get acclimated to playing against SEC type players in practice.

Waste a year? Getting him on the field will make him catch up faster than sitting him on the sidelines and unless you think he'll get jumped anytime the next 3 years, your worrying is nonsensical.
Get him some field time with Furman. Do you not remember 18 freshman and true freshman played against UNC in week one. I think he'll get on the field at Furman and will go from there. outside of the trenches and QB, there is no real reason to redshirt anybody
