The information from the Texas A%M web site is dated. Here are the Medical Redshirt Rules from the 2010-2011 NCAA Division I Manual taken from Article 14 Eligibility: Academic and
General Requirements and sub paragraph 14.2.4 (c) which states:
In team sports, the injury or illness occurs when the student-athlete has not participated in more than three contests or dates of competition (whichever is applicable to that sport) or 30 percent (whichever number is greater) of the institution’s scheduled or completed contests or dates of competition in his or her sport.
Here's the link to the entire NCAA document:
