Who is getting a redshirt and when do we find out his kind of info?

I think a redshirt can be issued to any player who does not see the field in a season (not even 1 play). They have 5 years to complete 4 years of eligibility.

Generally they wait till around midseason. If you play after the 6th game of the season I think that your redshirt is pretty much gone. I am sure Volinarizona knows if you pm him.

they typically don't redshirt players at the very beginning of the season because they have no idea if injuries or other off-the-field problems will cause freshmen to have to play. Typically, bigdaddy is right. if you can get past the sixth game or so without playing, they will most likely try to redshirt you. That's not always the case. Basically anyone that you never see playing, is probably being held out for hopes of a redshirt. You can also petitition the NCAA for hopes of a miracle sixth season due to redshirting due to injury, etc. If we can find a good enough TE, i'd love to see if we can get Cottam a medical redshirt

Well Austin Rogers played against Air Force (5 for 69 yds) and received a medical redshirt due to him getting mono.

I'm not sure exactly about how the medical redshirt rules work, it has something to do with a percentage of plays the player played in before receiving the injury/illness. UT tried to get Quentin Hancock a medical redshirt, due to a hamstring injury but he failed.

Regular redshirts, the player cannot play any snaps to get one.
