McCall back by Indiana (at least Minnesota)?

[jbuch26]

I guess that's what Morehouse is saying. WOW...that could be a good thing!

 

[DexterMorgan]

What did the injury end up being? Broken Ankle?

 

[ICHawk24]

If you are going off their podcast... He says McCall is practicing this week. The game dates are total speculation.

 

[ChosenChildren]

THAT IS EXCITING. EVEN IF HE IS NOT BACK UNTIL MINNESOTA, THAT IS EXCITING!!!

 

[H8IAST8]

It would be nice to ease him into a few games (Indiana and minnesota) before the meat of the schedule

 

[Hawkeye11en1]

Oh that is fantastic....That means he will definitely be back by the Michigan game! That's the only game I get to go to this year...

Thats makes pulling Canzeri's redshirt incredibly stupid.

Thats makes pulling Canzeri's redshirt incredibly stupid.

Depending on how the season is going, maybe they redshirt McCall instead. My guess is we'll see Canzeri play this week. I wouldn't call it "incredibly stupid".

It wouldn't be a Hawkeye thread if some imbecile didn't show up.

Iowa can't red-shirt McCall. He has already played!

 

[ICHawk24]

McCall can receive a medical redshirt if he doesn't play the rest of the year. A medical redshirt can be granted in cases where the player has played less than 30% of a team's game.

 

[BlckNGldHwk]

why not just let him heal and hopefully he gets a medical redshirt for the year? )

if we're not using canzeri then what makes you think we would even use McCall?

Oh no........... I can imagine what thread will be born of this stock in the near future...................

You're right, I am speculating to the game. But it's hard for me to think a guy couldn't play within 1-2 weeks if he's practicing. Its not a muscle - its a bone - and some people can heal in less than 3 weeks. I hope McCall is one of 'em. It LOOKS like he's one of 'em...

 

[olddude]

Thats great news. I say save him and let him heal for the next 3 weeks and then see what hes got.

That is not true if the player has been cleared to play. If he is cleared and can play and the coaches hold him out it would be a wasted year and he wouldn't be eligible for a medical red-shirt.

 

[JonDMiller]

Let' see what happens before questioning the intelligence of 'decisions'

 

[ColumbusHawk]

McCall can receive a medical redshirt if he doesn't play the rest of the year. A medical redshirt can be granted in cases where the player has played less than 30% of a team's game.

If McCall can play this year, he is not eligible for a medical hardship waiver.

I want to make one so bad... I. will. refrain! ha

 

[PatrickAdamovicz]

I don't think you should ever redshirt a RB, simply because most if they are any good, won't be staying for that 5th year.
