    Anything the NCAA does stands to benefit the big schools. The small fry might also benefit, just not as much.

    Athletes "good enough" to play as a TF, then, hang around to play 4 years and set records?? Well, wouldn't they deserve the accolades??

    Old NCAA records didn’t include Bowl games. It was probably weird the first time someone set a record in a bowl game.

    Really good point. Again, another example of unintended consequences.

    Back in the day the season was 10 games, period. Not twelve or thirteen.

    An asterisk might be appropriate on every record going forward if the player participated in more than 4 full seasons + bowl games.

    And then you'll have a few (eg. Keenum, Chang) who manage to squeeze out a 5th season waiver.

    If they are not putting asterisks for guys who played in 8+ games more than the old guys, why would they asterisk a freshman who is not good enough to play full time his freshman year but plays in four games and redshirts?

    Re: New Red Shirt Rule

    Just to denote the different eras maybe. And I’m not necessarily arguing for or against it. Some don’t like the rule change because of the implication to records. I don’t like it because I perceive it as one more nail in the fence dividing us from the P5’s. For the NCAA to do it, it must benefit the money makers/generators.

    Please no asterisk! Makes me think of Ruth and Marris.

    I am pretty sure we won’t need an asterisk anyway. We all remember Canseco, McGuire, Sosa, and Bonds without it. We will simply file it away in our memory of when the change happened.

    MTSU QB Brent Stockstill will be 24 years old on August 4th, and will once again be MTSU's starting QB for the 4th year in a row. Stockstill signed with Cincinnati in 2013, and changed his mind almost immediately. He transferred to MTSU and joined the team in the summer of 2013 as a gray shirt. In 2014 Stockstill was put on full scholarship, became a roster member and red-shirted. He subsequently played in seasons 2015 thru 2017. He will play again in 2018.
