Article on Quinton Chievous...

What doesn't make since is why Q didn't get 1 minute in any of the 2 exhibition games last year. He was the only one on the team including walk ons that did not play.

This.

I noticed it last year too. I just chaulked it up to an unreported injury. I am beginning to agree with you that maybe it was agreed upon before hand (maybe with his father) that Chievous was going to redshirt no matter what, so those minutes were better used elsewhere.

Doesn't a freshman coming in get to play in a certain number of games and still have the option to redshirt?

I'm not sure if it's games or minutes, but yes they can play some, which does make the whole situation a bit odd.
