A red shirt senior means yes, he has already used his red shirt year. You get four years of eligibility, but can red shirt one year so that you are on the team for up to five years. You hardly ever hear them say "red shirt senior", usually it's "true freshman", or "red shirt freshman" (sophomore, or junior, etc), true meaning if they are a true freshman they can stay up to four more years, red shirting one. A red shirt freshman has already used it, so has three more years of eligibility left.Why the double numbers on several players like 1, 3, 4 etc?
What does it mean to be a redshirt senior like Conner McGuinnes. QB? Since he's a senior he's ineligible for playing after this year?
So I would assume Connor McGuinnes is in his fifth and last year of eligibility. I'm not sure about the graduate transfer rules, he might get another year if he transfers to another school? Someone else will have to explain that one...
Does that make sense? I probably over complicated it....
