That might be enough to cover a fast food lunch (for one) these day$.

All I am trying to say is that when a coach sells the program under the stupid portal system, which I hate, the coach can tell the recruit, "X number of our players went on to play at "Y" University, "Z" University, and so forth. Player development is now a huge part of selling the program under the portal. That is player development for the NEXT LEVEL. If I were a coach, I would not redshirt a player, knowing that he may be gone in two or three years.

What do people think the redshirt year is for?

They have freebie games fir redshirts now, too. Kind of the best of both worlds.

No doubt, but if we think coaches aren’t playing the best players available regardless of “burning” a redshirt, I think we are delusional. Players redshirt because they are hurt, or aren’t developed enough or there is an abundance of serviceable players in their position.
