I can't find this posted anywhere else, and I just read it in the Dispatch...

Injury update


Tressel said the status for the opener of senior fullback Branden Joe (high ankle sprain) and junior defensive end Mike Kudla (neck strain) still isn’t clear. They were the only projected starters to go down in preseason camp. But Tressel said receiver Devin Jordan was lost for the season after suffering a broken bone in his lower right leg this week. Walk-on lineman Daniel Dye also will miss the season after undergoing knee surgery.
 
Yeah he is...I think he came in the year after Zwick did. I was looking for them to hook up a ton over the next couple of years. Our WR depth is a slight concern to me. Hall and Holmes should be solid, and I guess this will also give Tony Gonzalez and John Hollins and Bam Childress some more time on the field. Another thing that just came to mind is that this is probably one less reason why Ginn wouldn't see the field at WR at some point early this year...

He was a redshirt last year... can he get another redshirt year (this year being a medical redshirt) in the event he wants to say in school six years with four years playing?? Anybody know how those rules work?

Wasn't Tyson Walter around for a sixth year, unfortunately?

I am pretty sure he can apply for a medical redshirt and get a 6th year of eligibility...I believe this covers the NCAA side of it:

Only scheduled competition (excluding scrimmages and exhibition contests) against outside participants during the playing season that concludes with the NCAA championship, or, if so designated, during the official NCAA championship playing season in that sport (e.g., spring baseball, fall soccer), shall be countable under this limitation in calculating both the number of contests or dates of competition in which the student-athlete has participated and the number of completed contests or dates of competition during that season in the sport.

</TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top colSpan=5>Effective Date: August 1, 2001.

</TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top colSpan=5>Rationale: The current hardship-waiver legislation, which measures the first half of the playing season by the number of completed contests or dates of competition rather than scheduled contests or dates of competition, leaves injured student-athletes uncertain as to whether they will be granted a medical-hardship waiver until the end of the playing season. The proposed change would provide injured student-athletes with more certainty as to the outcome of a medical-hardship waiver. Additionally, measuring the first half of the playing season by the number of scheduled contests (as set prior to the first scheduled contest or date of competition) will eliminate inequitable results that occur when games are cancelled due to inclement weather, power outages and other forces of nature. Measuring the first half of the playing season in this manner also will eliminate the need for hastily arranged make-up games. [Estimated Budget Impact: None.]
