What's up with Guillory?

[Da Meuawk!!!]

I understand he has some issues with his hand, or wrist, or something like that. Do they plan on red-shirting him? Can they RS him? I know they have to RS him before a certain number of games, or something like that. Just wondering if anyone knew the latest about him.

Cool I wasn't aware of him being rs'd. Thanks, but does anyone know if he is still hurt or what his status is?

he may be able to qualify for a medical redshirt. I heard talk of that, but i dont know the rules for that.

That's if he really is hurt still.

He and Bowman are out for the year, no medical redshirt.

Are we actively recuriting another catcher?

I thought Bowman was going to get a medical redshirt

My friend ran into Bowman before Fridays game against South AL. He told him that his injury didn't require surgery, he would rehab it, but he was redshirting this year. U heard it from the horses mouth.

Well if he is, and he can be granted a med. redshirt if he hasn't been redshirted already, redshirt him. I think he was 0 for his first 15 at bats to start the season. Besides, with Griffen and Kiffer, he'll be warming the bench either way.

Medical redshirts are awarded at the end of your eligibility. We wouldnt know until a few years from now, but I'm pretty sure the injury isnt bad enough to warrant an extra year. He even played a few weeks ago.

In the case of a medical redshirt, my understanding is you have to exhaust your eligability and then apply for the redshirt, which is subject to review & approval by the NCAA. I think it also requires completion of a certain amount of coursework toward a degree. There are some issues, as I think the NCAA wants to see a continued issue of injury (longer than one semester). Josh may have a better handle on the actual rules.
