Redshirt decision time - OutsiderFan - 09-19-2016

So now that we are three games in, nobody can play the remainder of the year and still maintain four years eligibility after this season.

So who are the true frosh who have played?

The only one I know of for sure is Curtis Robinson.  He could magically come up with an injury now and be redshirted this year, and still have four years to play.  Anyone else? 

As it relates to Robinson specifically, my assumption is he is a guy the coaching staff feels might leave three years removed from high school if good enough, and there is a good chance he might be. Sort of like Alex Carter situation.  Given how much Robinson is playing on special teams, and the fact Stanford is rotating a ridiculous amount of guys at ILB, it seems we might see him getting some defensive snaps and into the OLB rotation soon in obvious passing situations.

From here on out, if any frosh plays, he loses his redshirt year.

Herbig has played and played great.  Also our frosh long snapper has played.  Remember different long snapper for place kicks vs punting

We have played 2 games it's 30% of the schedule rounded down.  Thus after 4 games

Given our depth to only an injury would cause a burning shirt in my mind. 

Btw Perez played quite a bit. Was he Cajusted?  😳

Duh, was thinking 3 weeks in, not realizing Stanford has played one two games, not three.

Anyway, so we have Robinson, Herbig, and the long snapper who will likely not redshirt at this point.

I believe Bob is right -- the true freshmen who have played are Robinson, Herbig, and McNitzky. I noticed Robinson in the game at OLB in the 4th quarter, so he's not just playing special teams. Herbig is getting regular snaps in the jumbo formations. As Bob noted, McNitzky is the long snapper on punts.

A medical redshirt would be available to a player who appeared in no more than four games and who suffered a season-ending injury in the first half of the season. I'm not aware of anybody on our team who has suffered a season-ending injury. (Maybe Wes Annan, though I haven't seen anything official.)

Of course with Wes Annan it would seem to be irrelevant as he already redshirted last season, which as far as I know was not related to injury (i.e. losing two years due to injury is a possible reason for an extra year via hardship, but not if one was voluntary).

Is Annan out for the entire season?

Re: Redshirt decision time - BobK - 09-19-2016

Annan's injury might not keep him out all year.  But maybe until end of October. 

Re: Redshirt decision time - Langdude - 09-19-2016

Yes, of the freshmen, only Robinson, Herbig, and McNitzky have played. I'm pleased it isn't more, but a bit surprised.

Could've sworn I saw Treyjohn Butler and Scooter Harrington get in yesterday, but I guess I was wrong.

If Phillips is out for an extended period of time, and Annan can't get back, they might burn Michael William's shirt. And, depending on performance and injury on the OL, Devery Hamilton is always a possibility.

Yep, exactly right.
