Marcellus Barnes out for the season

That does suck.

Even though he’s played in over 30% of our games, he might still be able to petition for a medical redshirt.

Petitions work in mysterious ways (although rarely in our favour).

If he was unable to play the entire season due to an injury suffered in training camp or carried over from HS, he might have a chance.

Where does the 30% you reference come from? I thought it was you could play in 4 games.
4 divided by 12 regular season games is 33%. 4 divided by 13 games with a bowl would be 30.7%.

Used to be you could play in 30% of regular season games as long as all the games were in the first half of the season, and apply for a medical if you got injured.

30% of 12 games = 3.6 games, rounded up to 4.

However, I think that rule was superseded by the new "You can play 4 games anytime" rule and redshirt, even if you're not injured.
 
Well that blows.

This was what happened to Jacquez too, right? Out after playing in a 5th game?
 
I thought it was the Opp.. The kids have the 4-5 yr deal the players can opt out.

when he got hurt you could see it wasn't good.. Thats Why I asked in the other threads.

The point is you can’t worry about redshirts.

Exactly, if the players have the option, it’s a series of one year deals from the schools perspective.
