Lance Kelly to Free Safety ?

_ Not sure of the percentage for a medical redshirt but he broke it in the 2nd game of the year. _

Yea I remember it for sure. Terrible injury. If its 10%, which I seem to remember hearing around the time he got hurt, then he wont get a RS since he was in 2 games.

_ Does anyone know if he is getting or has gotten a medical red shirt from that broken stick he suffered last year? _

I believe you have to use up all eligibilty before you can apply for a medical redshirt.

Here we go:

Medical Hardship Waiver

If a student-athlete suffers a season-ending injury or illness after competing in a limited amount of competition during a particular academic year, he/she may qualify for a medical hardship waiver which would allow him/her an additional season of competition during the five-year period of eligibility. To qualify for a medical hardship:

(a) the student-athlete’s injury or illness must occur in one of the four seasons of intercollegiate competition or subsequent to the first day of classes in the student-athlete’s senior year in high school;

(b) the injury or illness must occur prior to the completion of the first half of the playing season that concludes with the NCAA championship in that sport and must result in incapacity to compete for the remainder of that playing season; and

(c) the injury or illness must occur when the student-athlete has not participated in more than two contests/dates of competition or 20% of the institution’s scheduled contests/dates of competition in his/her sport (whichever number is greater).

Blount was at ss and kelly at 2nd team fs

_ Blount was at ss and kelly at 2nd team fs _

Last year Blount played FS which is a natural position for him. He needs some weight to move to SS.

Your right. Had positions backwards

_ He's the Johns kid we didnt get(LSU signee). Very intelligent, good athlete, will be able to call the signals in the secondary.

IF correct, might be a Good move.

Z, I love Kelly just like the next Cajun fan but "very intelligent" is a major overstatment in his case. With that being said, I think he is the man for whatever job he is given.

Kelly at FS puts a player that knows what the receiver is thinking and trying to do and knows what the QB is up to...in an excellent crossover position.

Ball goes up...it's in the air....


Kelly's looking the ball in, getting his body in position to shield the approach of the ball, TIMING...he jumps up in the air....HE HAS IT!!!

He's at the 40.... the 30...the 20...he 10...TOUCHDOWN UL!!!


He becomes the receiver, he has all the soft skills, looking forward to seeing him in action...he will be the only WR on the field that does not have a DB covering him...
