ILLINIWrestlingBlog Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I seem to remember that the rule is slightly different for redshirt freshmen who might use one of their five freebie varsity matches once conference dual season starts. What is the rule again? Conference season kicks in big time shortly. What will be the impact from true redshirt freshmen, if any? Why won't Bono sign Burwikk's release?

ILLINIWrestlingBlog Posted January 2, 2023 Author Share Posted January 2, 2023 Also, if my understanding is correct, the five free competitions rule only applies to true freshmen, and not, in example, for somebody like Iowa's Drake Ayala or Nebraska's Kyle Burwikk. Is my understanding correct, though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPhillips Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Athletes could use five competition dates and still maintain redshirt status. True freshman were not allowed to compete unattached in the first semester. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else needs to use them only during first half and at that would have to prove actual injury. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
