Barnhizer coming back?

[pdp98]

Wow.

 

[EagerFan]

April 1st?

Probably an April Fool’s joke, but sort of an odd one of it is.

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

Not funny. A good April’s fool joke has to be somewhat plausible.

We already celebrated April Fools here

Was this ever actually confirmed to be an April Fools joke?

He would be crazy to not pursue a waiver. The money he could make in a final college year has to dwarf what he would make professionally.

Well he can pursue a waiver but it will require the NCAA redshirt rule to change.

If you play one game in a season you can't redshirt.
Unless you sustain a season-ending injury.
Then you can apply for a medical redshirt, but the injury must occur before the midpoint of the season AND you cannot have played in more than 30% of your team's games.

On the other hand, there are people talking about getting rid of redshirts and giving everybody 5 seasons. If that is what is takes to get Barnhizer back, I'm still totally opposed.

Makes no sense that the BB rules and FB rules are so different, FB can play 1/3 of season and still RS, BB can't play even one game? If challenged, hard to see how NCAA wins that one
