Not funny. A good April’s fool joke has to be somewhat plausible.
He would be crazy to not pursue a waiver. The money he could make in a final college year has to dwarf what he would make professionally.Was this ever actually confirmed to be an April Fools joke?
Makes no sense that the BB rules and FB rules are so different, FB can play 1/3 of season and still RS, BB can't play even one game? If challenged, hard to see how NCAA wins that oneWell he can pursue a waiver but it will require the NCAA redshirt rule to change.
If you play one game in a season you can't redshirt.
Unless you sustain a season-ending injury.
Then you can apply for a medical redshirt, but the injury must occur before the midpoint of the season AND you cannot have played in more than 30% of your team's games.
On the other hand, there are people talking about getting rid of redshirts and giving everybody 5 seasons. If that is what is takes to get Barnhizer back, I'm still totally opposed.
