our you talking about red shirting , ,if so usually the coach has to many good players like quarterbacks or such . And he might have a player sit out year . Still on scholar ship . They practice still, might run the scout teams and such . Hope that is what you want .

Now once Red Shirted can a player loose his red shirt status at some point in the season and play if needed?

Yes, but he loses a full year of eligibility even if he only plays 1 game.

But sometimes players can be granted one of two types of "medical redshirts".  In the first kind, a player who has already redshirted one year asks the NCAA for a medical redshirt when they know they are going to miss an upcoming season.  They are not always granted, and usually have the stipulation of academic progress tied to it.

The second way a player can get a medical redshirt is retroactively, even if they play in a few games.  Usually only one game is they played a lot of minutes, and two games if they were only special teams.  The most recent and well known example of this Ben Mauk, who entered the 2006 season at Wake Forest as the starting QB, but broke his arm in the first game.  He applied for a medical redshirt for the year, and it probably would have been granted had he not transferred to U. Cincinnati (because the third string QB, rFr Riley Skinner, went on to be ACC rookie of the year and had a stranglehold on the starting position, Mauk used a special transfer waiver to go to UC).  The decision is currently under appeal.

Red Shirts are usually killed early on in an episode, to cause the viewer to 'feel' the anger that Captain Kirk is feeling, towards the alien antagonist.

There are three "shirts" in college that I know of.

The most common is red shirt, where, usually, a freshman sits out a year of eligibility. He still has four years of eligibility remaining afterwards.

The other two are for freshmen only, as far as I know. The first of that is becoming more popular with limited scholarships and huge football budgets. It is the gray shirt, where a freshman signs with a team but does not become a part of the team his first year. Instead he goes to the school, usually to raise his academics, and then starts the following year as a true freshman (on the team).

The final is the green shirt where a freshman joins the team for spring practice before he is even a true freshman (enrolls in the spring, rather than fall of his signing year).

I haven't heard the term Green shirt, usually just early enrollie.

Gray shirt isn't an official title, its more of a term created by the coaches and media to describe the situation you described.  Borderline prospects also tend to get grayshirted.  Grayshirt also don't usually enroll until the Spring as well, the difference is they enroll the semester after they graduate HS, where as what you called a green shirt enrolls in the spring the same school year as their HS senior year.

Anyone have an answer to this redshirt question? An athlete enters a D1 volleyball program and redshirts the first year just to improve skills, not because of injury. Player plays some the second year, then is injured in practice before the season start and will miss the entire season. Can she ask the NCAA for another year of competition, or is it a waste of time and seldom granted. She would have no more than 4 season of play, and would graduate in 5 1/2 years (academic progress is a not a problem). Any insight would be great--I can't really find anything on the NCAA site that addresses this particular situation. Thanks.

HAHAHAHHA! Funniest answer ever.

To Husker: Might as well try. The sense behind asking for another "redshirt" year is too logical to pass up trying.

I think the rule is >70% = medical redshirt. I know one of Ohio State's quarterbacks was on the squad for like 6 years

@ Dawuss

I believe it is 30%, because that is what it is for basketball; link below is where that info comes from:

@ DonMVP

That was the case I sited in my post above.  He's still fighting, but it looks like its going to be denied.
