Nottingham must have received a hardship sixth-year waiver from the NCAA. This is interesting considering the recent thread about sixth-years and Noor Davis in the Pac 12 Media Days thread.

My memory of Nottingham's career.
2010 - redshirt
2011 - second string to Luck
2012 - lost initial qb battle to Nunes. Appeared in 2 games. Passed by Hogan. Transferred to Columbia
2013 - injured.
2014 - played in 4 of Columbia's 10 games.
I think that playing in 4 games out of 10 is too many games to receive a medical redshirt for 2014. That would lead me to surmise that he may have been injured in 2012 which could count as a medical redshirt. Thus he would have missed two years (2012,2013) due to injuries which would then seem to satisfy the sixth-year waiver criteria.
But, I never heard he was injured in 2012. That might put a different light on the Nunes/Nottingham debate carried on so voiciferously over the first year after Luck moved on.
Or, are there different rules for FCS?
Anyone?
Terry?
