Why doesn't Anthony Cassar have one more year of eligibility?

[Boring]

Somebody clear me up on this issue. From what I understand everybody who wrestled in 2020 got an extra year of eligibility. Cassar was a Jr in 2020 and wrestled 3 matches, going 3-0, and then took an injury redshirt. Cassar didn't wrestle again in college. Shouldn't he have had technically 2 more years of eligibility? Also since he wrestled in 2020 doesn't that mean he has another year? 

Seems weird to bring it up over 4 years after Cassar's last match, but Steveson came back after not wrestling for 3 years. Plus, found this video on youtube asking how Steveson was able to come back this year. Apparently the NCAA never received any paperwork for an Olympic year for Steveson.

2020 wasn't the extra year of eligibility. If you were a senior in 2020 you were done. 2021 was the free year. How many medical redshirts can you get?

According to wrestlestat Cassar got 3 inj redshirts. I have no idea on the limit. 

Thanks for answering. i think it would be a splendid freakshow if Cassar was allowed to come back and wrestle another year

I’m pretty sure he did have more eligibility, but did not use it because he was injured

Could you imagine the buildup and hype if it would have been this past season he came back? Steveson vs Cassar II?? Feels like Holyfield/Tyson or something.

I am believe it would have to be Steveson vs Cassar III because Cassar already won the the first and the rematch.
