This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Interesting application of the Medical Redshirt rule. by TWO

Wash State is getting an unusual ruling on the transfer of former Eastern Washington QB Gage Guburd who had a great career at EWU threw for almost 10K yards in his career and was FCS player of the year in 2016. Had he not been injured he would have exhausted his eligibility in 2018.

But he was injured in the 5th game and didn't play again. The Med redshirt rule says you can't play in more than 1/3 of the your teams games to be granted one. But his team went to the FCS finals and played 15 games so he qualified and was granted the Med Redshirt which he is using as a Grad Transfer to Wazzu.

The Pirate just keeps falling into these type of QB's. Last year it was the Stash guy from E.Carolina and now this kid.

When Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa went down in the game vs Michigan, and immediately everybody thought of the new redshirt rule that would allow him to rehab and play late in the season and as long as he didn't play in more than 4 games he got the redshirt. But had he played for Alabama or Clemson who played 15 games, he could have gotten hurt in the 5th game and qualified for the Med Redshirt. Since ND at most could have played 14 games this year he'd have fallen short of getting the Med Redshirt. Doubt if it's a rule that'll come into play very often, but interesting that it's there and an option for those 2 teams that reach the CFP finals.
