Was this rule not in place at the time Booty came back to LSU? Because I seriously doubt he had completed any college courses while he was playing baseball.

But he did enroll. That's why he could only play 1 year. He played in the minors for 4 years, then decided to give it up and take advantage of his last year of eligibility. I'm pretty sure I'm right about that part. I might have to double check.

Actually he did enroll in school thinking he could get out of his Marlins contract. He wasn't able to get out until a couple years later so he was considered a redshirt sophomore by the time he actually played football in 99.
ETA: He enrolled in the Spring of 97 at the same time Abram did.
