Doesn't matter both are done for a while if not the year.
When did Dowels go down? Was he the one in the endzone in the 1st clutching his knee? If so, he's not coming back, IMO
I thought it was his ankle but I could be wrong either way he was in excruciating pain and couldn't not put any weight on that side at all.
Can they get an extra year?
Cordy can.
Dowels already redshirted in 2014.
Dowels can get a medical redshirt though I believe? Or did he redshirt for medical reasons before.
Only one redshirt year to a customer. Since his 2014 r/s was a coaches decision, there's no chance the NCAA will approve an additional one.
That is not necessarily true, a special medical red shirt can be requested and given by the NCAA, if injury occurs before three games are completed. This is only done by special request and is not a sure thing. It can only be granted once in a players career.
There is a little wiggle room if you can document some sort of injury during the original redshirt year. That can be used in the waiver request and has been known to be granted a 6th year at times.Only if you have a redshirt year available.
Same thing happened with Hunt.
He redshirted in 2011.
Played in 2012 and 2013.
Played half the season in 2014.
Played 1 game in 2015.
Not eligible for a waiver. His 5 year window closed after 2015.
I'm guessing Bradshaw is back in the mix at DB. What happened with Foster? I remember he had an INT during a scrimmage and had some small buzz. If two guys are out he's definitely going to play.
Chris Frederick had a nice ST tackle. He's a DB that will most likely get pressed into PT
