Who else thought it was a duck move by Stansbury to yank his sophomores redshirt 10 minutes into the game last night?
I thought it was a strange move. Since some posters are always confused about Redshirt rules, just playing in a single game for one minute blows the redshirt. The rules are different for a medical redshirt.

My understanding is that it likely will not jeopardize his redshirt.

However, to answer the question the reason he was played last night was out of necessity. The two bigs that back-up Sharp were both in Covid protocol and were not available. The options were use the 6’ 10” kid who hasn’t played at all yet or use a 6’ 7” walk-on who gets mop up minutes. Not good options, to say the least.

Didn't know about the 2 other guys being in lockdown. That's a better reason than Stansbury wants to beat UK so bad because we snubbed him so often. In my defense, Stansbury has been known to be a dick. Me myself are just an *******.

The announcers thought that it would by their reaction and I cannot find ANY information that the rule was changed for CBB so that it would not jeopardize his redshirt. As pointed out above, the official rules still maintain that his redshirt status is blown by playing against UK.

I cannot find any information that confirms that college basketball changed the rule. Maybe someone else can help?

He has to play the kid.

Miles needs to get the experience as the guy he’s playing behind will be starting for the Cats next year!!!

Not unless the rule was changed this season. In prior seasons, one second in a game blew the redshirt.
Unless a legitimate injury occurred early in season.

According to the Senior Associate Athletic Director for Compliance, Scott Young, “the NCAA has two requirements for a medical redshirt; the injury must have occurred in the first half of the season, and the athlete must have competed in less than 30 percent of the season.

You are correct. Thanks for posting that info.
