Redshirt isn't blown. If we get anything good out of Dobbs it is well worth playing him this year. Red shirts are less important than they used to be when you actually kept a player for four years and you wanted four good years of his talent on the field. If Dobbs becomes a great talent, chances are he would be gone after 3 years redshirt or not. The redshirt used to be a chip for the players, today it is more a chip for the teams to use as they see fit to manage experience year over year.
