Sounds like the new redshirt rule will pass. Players will be allowed to play 4 game with the redshirt. I feel like this will be useful to many players but i feel like it could also be abused
Is that as in the first four games of the season, I assume?
Does that mean you can play 8 games of only a half? I’m sure teams will push the envelope.Sounds like the new redshirt rule will pass. Players will be allowed to play 4 game with the redshirt. I feel like this will be useful to many players but i feel like it could also be abused
No. Once you are in for a play it counts as a game.Does that mean you can play 8 games of only a half? I’m sure teams will push the envelope.Sounds like the new redshirt rule will pass.

Sounds great to me, get some PT for young guys without blowing a year if eligibility for 2 half games against Sun Belt teams or whatever. Will allow for more red-shirting I would think. If injuries decimate a position by late season, a Freshman could play 2 or 3 games and still have 4 years. Or allow for them to play in bowl games, which are mostly glorified exhibitions anyway.
The rule is only for true freshman, just as a note.
Should be like BB, IMO, letting a player practice all fall and then play the last four games and not loose a year of eligibility WILL be exploited and abused. Four of first six or in the first half the number of games a team has scheduled makes more sense!

How will it be exploited and abused?
I believe what he is saying is teams like OSU and ALa will play cream puffs their last two games and play their freshmen and rest their starters! In that manner their starters are fresh for their bowl game and if a freshman gets injured big deal because they will be redshirted. Or withfreshmen being allowed to play 4 games an entire class could be red shirted

I believe that Alabama this past season and OSU s few years back won the National Championship after NOT playing in their Conference Championship game and had the extra time off for their regular starting players time to rest and heal which could be similar to scheduling a cupcake late in the year to do the same. And as I said it will be easier to do so if you only play 8 conference games......... .
I believe our concerns have been raised by other coaches.

Actually there is near unanimous support from all over CFB from coaches for this rule change.
