The status of Darius Johnson?
Posted: Fri Oct 02, 2009 7:50 amSince DJ is going to be out another week or 2 would it not make more sense to just redshirt him now? Can anyone shed some light on this?

Posted: Fri Oct 02, 2009 9:23 amI am usually in this debate, and it appears there MAY be a new tier of relief that COULD provide a RS in this instance, although I am not totally convinced. I still lean towards the thought that it must be a season ending injury, and this is not. Get him on the field regardless.

Re: The status of Darius Johnson?
Posted: Fri Oct 02, 2009 9:45 amThat is where the new tier comes in. Stallion has posted some about it on another site. For a medical hardship, it definitely has to be season ending, limit of 20% play in first half of season, and apply after eligibilty is exhausted. There may be a new category that falls between red shirt and hardship, but I have no details on it with which I am comfortable citing.
