Perhaps the biggest eye-opener this week in San Antonio was the performance by William Anderson. He’s currently ranked as the No. 159 player in the country, but made a case as a Rivals100 prospect with how he performed not only in the practices, but in the game itself. Anderson had one sack and a pair of tackles for loss in the All-American Bowl


The ultimate Rivals move would be to watch that kid completely obliterate every OLineman that tried to block him in practice before going beast mode in the game, and then put him at like 92nd in their final rankings.

All-American Bowl: Winners and losers from Saturday

quote:

WINNERS


quote:

Alabama

As usual the Crimson Tide were represented by several players at the all-star event, but this year featured not only future Alabama QB Bryce Young lighting up the scoreboard, but also future Tide defense end terrorizing opposing offensive linemen. Whether Tua Tagovailoa stays in school or goes to the NFL Draft, Tide fans had to be salivating watching Young pick apart the East defense for 164 yards and two touchdowns on just nine attempts. The same can be said about William Anderson, who two tackles for loss, including a sack, as well as one forced fumble. The pair has a chance to be the stars of their respective offensive and defensive units down the road in Tuscaloosa.

Yes. And if I'm wrong, educate me.

It is completely different than Hightower in 2009. He played. He wouldn’t have been able to redshirt (regular) because he played. The 4 game rule didn’t exist.

Moses didn’t play at all. He is automatically able to redshirt by today’s standards or 2009 standards. No medical necessary.

Hightower was injured in the fourth game of the season against Arkansas. Alabama played 14 games that season. Under the rules of the time, he qualified for a medical redshirt but it was not used since he simply finished his four years and left for the NFL.

It is not automatic. Moses would still need to apply for a medical after four years to get a year back. But he is simply going to expire his four years and leave for the NFL as well.

Not sure what that's about, but medical redshirts were eliminated in 2018.

The rules changed on them, but they were not eliminated.

I can't find anything referencing a medical redshirt for a player that plays more than 4 games (Will Reichard).

I'd love to be wrong and have Reichard for 4 more years (assuming he can break the kicker curse somewhat).

You aren’t answering my question. Why would he need a medical when he didn’t play a down this season and has not yet redshirted? Why would he not just get a regular redshirt, like a transfer who has to sit out a year? Or a freshman who didn’t play all year like Trey Sanders?

You get 4 years to play and 1 redshirt year.


Dylan didn’t redshirt as a Freshman so this year can count as a normal redshirt year for him.

So Dylan is a Redshirt Junior next year.

You don't say. The best edge rusher any of those clowns have seen this season and he might make a run at top 100.

I said it before and I'll say it again. The services are going to be hesitant to move him to where his talent demands at this juncture because it's an indictment on their own ability as "scouts". He was easily the best edge rusher in San Antonio and Breese is the only kid there that even approached him from a standpoint of disrupting a play in the backfield or just flat winning 1v1 reps. Breese is the consensus top player in the country

The good thing is that none of that shite matters. We're getting the same player whether they move him up 100 spots or drop him 100 spots.

Correct. Good catch. Labryan Ray was also able to redshirt for the 2019 season. I've corrected the 2020 Projected Roster post accordingly.

Since Reichard's injury occurred before his 5th game and his one punt attempt clearly showed he was unable to play due to his prior injury, I think he can easily get a waiver for a regular redshirt.

He played in 5 games. The punt was in his 5th game.

Edit. I see what you're saying. Hopefully you're right.

I know. BUT, he was already injured before that 5th game and shouldn't have been out there attempting to play. I doubt the NCAA will refuse to grant him a waiver to redshirt because of that one punt attempt which demonstrated that his prior and still existing hip flexor injury prevented his ability to punt effectively and punt without aggravating his hip injury.

This isn’t true

quote:

Josh McMillon wrote last month on his Facebook page that he had been granted a medical redshirt to be eligible for a sixth college season in 2020. However, he later tweeted that being granted the redshirt did not necessarily mean he would come back to use it.

Matt Rhule leaving Baylor should help us with that that Texas DE.

That's a medical hardship (granted a 6th year) He'd already used his redshirt year.

There's lot of debating going on in here over semantics. The botom line is that players have an eligibility clock -- five years to play four. A medical hardship waiver (commonly called a "medical redshirt") isn't sought unless a player has previously used his regular redshirt and is therefore seeking a 6th season of eligibility due to injury or health/medical problems. Knott and McMillon are examples of that situation.

We’ve been receiving many calls recently with questions about the rules for a “medical redshirt” or what is officially called a Medical Hardship Waiver.

Many spring sports are quickly approaching the midpoint of their season. For an athlete to qualify for a Medical Hardship Waiver, one of the rules is that the injury or illness must have occurred prior to the first game of the second half of their season. Also, the injury must be medically documented to be “season-ending.”
