2013 TSUN shenanigans and arguments

WolverineMike;2320292; said:
this is what I was informed:


Ryan was not injured in 2010, which is why he's not a candidate to apply for a 6th season of eligibility. If he were injured in 2010, and that was the reason why he redshirted, then he would be eligible to apply for a 6th year.

and


Ryan didn't play in 2010. The redshirt was automatic. Every scholarship athlete is given/allowed five years to "use up" their four years of on the field/ice/court playing eligibility. A sixth season is ONLY granted to athletes who have had two full years of eligibility wiped out by injury.





TIFWIW

Not true.

Fairly certain that Mike is correct on this one. For example, Slaughter was denied a 6th year after rupturing his achilles, even though ND tried to argue that he was injured his freshman year when he took the regular redshirt.

No, Mike is not correct. Your example is a kid taking a regular redshirt year and then trying to not count it as such because he was injured.

Jake already redshirted and now an injury has cost him another season of eligibility. He has a very good case for a medical redshirt year, though the ncaa has never been predictable nor consistent with awarding them.

Slaughter's situation is identical to Ryan's. They both redshirted (non-medical) their freshman season. They were both injured and unable to play in a subsequent season. Slaughter did not get that season back (6th year) from the NCAA.

The difference between Slaughter and Gardner is that Slaughter was asking for a 6 year of eligibility based a red shirt year in which Notre Dame had no significant proof that he was injured and a year in which he was injured. The NCAA wants proof that a player missed a significant portion of 2 years because of an injury before they grant a 6th year.

Gardner only asked that his 1st year be considered an injury "redshirt" and is still completing his eligibility within the 5 year window.

All this means is that Ryan is unlikely to get a 6th year.

No one is comparing Gardner's situation to either Slaughter's or Ryan's. Having said that, you are absolutely correct in terms of the NCAA wanting a player to be injured for two seasons before granting a 6th year, which again, backs up Mike's original assertion.

I was going by what you typed, which was that he was requesting an injury waiver based on being injured in his normal redshirt season.

The part that you didn't mention - and I didn't know until googling it - was that he was injured in game 3 vs MSU, and that the "injury" during his regular redshirt year was used to try and bolster his resume for a medical redshirt waiver.

He was certainly eligible for a medical redshirt request (you can only play in 20-25% of the season, and none after a certain point), but not a lock.


Ryan will miss the entire 2013 season, which will help his chances.

Looks like you guys may be right. I was under the impression that you could get a 6th year without being injured 2 years, but a lot of links are proving me wrong:
http://www.michigandaily.com/sports/03-michigan-linebacker-jake-ryan-out-indefinitely-torn-acl-20

Below are some other examples I found, though BBall may not be the same system

Marquise Simmons - missed all but opening game in RS Senior year

Trevor Mbakwe - tore ACL in Nov of RS Senior year, granted 6th year

Shon Coleman - missed 2 years due to cancer

Gary Gillium - missed 1.5 years

Kentrell Lockett - tore ACL in 3rd game, also had to prove he was injured during redshirt year

Sorry, made the connection in my head as I was reading the thread becasue I had done a search when an business associate who was a Notre Lame fan was complaining that Gardner got an "extra"year and Slaughter was denied.

I live in Holland (until the 12th of this month). A very small town near the lake, west of Grand Rapids. The ONLY good thing about this place is that the Buckeyes did not lose a single game while I lived here. Incidentally, I'm moving to Orange County, CA. The last game the Buckeyes played when I last lived there was in Tempe, about 10 years and 3 months ago (think Tostitos). So glad to be leaving TSUN. Even happier about being able to point and laugh at the hypocrisy on my way out.

@TheBiggestHouse it's NOT a violation. It is a friend giving a friend a tat. He isn't selling it. It only becomes a violation if sale.

The major beef I had was that Gardner:
a. traveled with the team
b. dressed out in pads/helmet with the team
c. warmed up with the team

when he was 'injured'.

The >30% rule is great if said player is injured. Blake Countess, obviously injured. Gardner, not so much, and I see Bellomy's injury as karma for trying to skirt the rules.
