@Vol_Football: JONES: (On Gilliam) I've spoken with him and our players still want him around. That's the mindset. They think about each other.
Aside from feeling bad for the kid, dooley not recruiting any O-line comes to mind. I rarely use the word hate, but I hate that guy. My hate for him has hit bama status.
I'm sure he can apply for a medical pass or whatever the hell it's called that I swear to god I can't think of right now.
The Hardship Waiver – Not to be confused with the redshirt is the hardship waiver, which is commonly, but incorrectly, referred to as the medical redshirt. A “medical redshirt” does not exist. On occasion, a student-athlete may have competed and used up a year of eligibility, but because of an incapacitating injury/illness, they may be granted a hardship waiver and receive an additional year of eligibility. In order for this to happen, the following criteria must be satisfied: 1) the injury/illness is a season-ending injury; 2) the injury/illness occurs prior to the completion of the first half of the season; and 3) the injury/illness occurs when the student-athlete has not participated in more than the greater of three contests/dates of competition or 30% of the team’s scheduled contests/dates of competition during the team’s traditional season. (Bylaw 14.2.4) Along with contemporaneous medical documentation, this injury/illness information is provided to the conference office, where the decision on granting/denying the additional year of eligibility is rendered. The Difference – If a student-athlete competes, they will use a year of competition and not be eligible for a redshirt year. However, if they compete and subsequently suffer a season-ending injury/illness, they may be eligible to receive a hardship waiver. Boom?
In fairness I have used Medical Redshirt myself on multiple occasions. I just went to the VolDad School of Internet Research.
Don't let him lie to you Beech. He yelled through the office that connects our rooms to ask me what it was called.
And of course he didn't answer because his class was putting crime scene tape around him where he hasn't moved in the last couple hours.
