Pitt's Hugley to sit out rest of year, seek redshirt
Coach says his absence is not academic or injury related.
Hasn’t even been granted. One pending example. It’s a theoretical policy that coaching staffs don’t back on.
Pitt's Hugley to sit out rest of year, seek redshirt
Coach says his absence is not academic or injury related.
If the talking heads on the radio were correct, if he enters less than 25% of the season's games, he can red shirt. As of last week, he has played in 8.
There is speculation that basketball could modify the participation rule to something similar to the new football rule. And Barnes has been on the rules committee so he might know something that we don’t. But the current NCAA rule in place in basketball is if a player participated in any game, even for one second, then their redshirt option is gone.
It is one of the few disappointing things to a tremendous season to this juncture. It became apparent at Mississippi State that Barnes had no trust in him to spell ZZ even for a minute or two. It's a little puzzling because he certainly looks the part. Hope he sticks it out.It appears his redshirt has been burned. I'm not sure why since we only play him 2 minutes when we're up by 30. I dont get the logic.
Not panicking a bit over him. I think he'll be perfectly fine, but don't understand the wasted year.
Conflicting accounts. Someone is lying.""However, due to an injury and my mental health being a priority, after long discussions and talks with my coaches, family and mentors I have decided the best course of action will be for me to sit out the remainder of the season to fully invest in healing mentally as well as physically."
The article states he was injured early, only played 7 games, and he says due to his injury as the first words out of his mouth.
It’s the same difference, just terminology. Medical redshirt, medical hardship. Who gives a crap. You get an extra season of eligibility.
Hypothetically, if someone gets injured and granted an extra year of eligibility, what are they called? Are they called a Medical Hardship Freshman or a Redshirt Freshman?The difference is that a redshirt is gone as soon as a player is on the floor. You said that that is 100% wrong.
A medical hardship waiver has separate eligibility requirements. They are NOT the same thing. 100%.
You are suggesting that TN should put BJ on some sort of injured list and get an extra year. That’s not how it works.
Conflicting accounts. Someone is lying.
“He hasn't played in the last month due to personal reasons, with coach Jeff Capel saying last month his absence was not related to either academics nor an injury.”
