Huh? If you play one single down, your RS possibility is gone unless you qualify for a medical RS that must be OKayed by the NCAA. The end of the season has nothing to do with it. You play...you lose the option.

No need to RS either Shepard or Randle unless you think they will be there MORE than 3 years. You are eligible for the NFL draft after a RS SO or a TR JR season. It was smart to play them as TR FR. Same would have gone with Loston who did play a little but then his hand caused him to be removed. They will probably request and get a MED RS for him...probably won't matter due to the NFL draft in 2 years, but can't hurt.

Not true. Depends on when you play and how much. Granted Shep's chances are burned but its not a zero tolerance rule.

While the redshirt status may be conferred by a coach at the beginning of the year, it is not confirmed until the end of the season, and more specifically, it does not rule a player ineligible in advance to participate in the season. If a player shows great talent, or there are injuries on the team, the coach may remove the redshirt status and allow the player to participate in competition for the remainder of the year.

Check my post on I have an idea: it pretty much sums it up Stubborn hard headed coaches that we will never understand. He took risk his first year and now its like he's doing just enough playing safe to keep his job. or is it just me?

But, it is lost when he plays too much in the beginning of the season. FWIW
