What makes you say that? A player may receive a medical redshirt if they suffer a season-ending injury during the first half of the season and while competing in less than 30% of the team's total games that season. See Case Keenum: www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/case-keenum-1.html . Redshirted in 2006, played in every single game in 2007, 2008, 2009, injured in third game of 2010, granted sixth year and played in 2011. Only missed playing time due to injury during one season. Yes, she would qualify as a medical redshirt except she used her rs sitting out a year because of transferring, right? Keenum was granted a 6th year because Houston argued his redshirt year wasn't voluntary because he had a broken collar bone. I like the obscure example,tho. You may call it obscure, but he is the most well known 6th year senior I could think of. Can you provide an example of a player denied a medical redshirt despite missing a season due to injury?

Google it and you'll find multiple examples. That said,I comparable one would be Jacks bb player Keaton Moffitt. He was denied a 6th year just last April. He was injured in his eighth game his freshman year at Sioux Falls. Played his second and then sat out a year when he transferred. He played two years for he Jacks. The NCAA makes weird decisions once in awhile but the rule is pretty clear, you have to miss two years due to injury or circumstances beyond the players control.

I know that she was a 6th year senior. Did she RS her freshman year then miss her entire senior season so then she was granted an extra year? Regardless, the NCAA has been inconsistent with their rulings.

Played three years,then missed her entire fourth year with another injury. That means she missed two years with injury which is the rule for a sixth year. Sounds pretty consistent to me. Feel free to post all your antidotes of NCAA inconsistencies.

Feel free to post all your antidotes of NCAA inconsistencies. It took a few minutes to find, but my search has backed up what I believed in that Duffy would be eligible for a medical hardship if she were to miss the entire season. Everyone, join in on this riveting activity and read up on NCAA bylaw 14.2.4 on hardship waivers: www.ncaapublications.com/productdownloads/D114OCT.pdf . The only gray area I can see that the NCAA has to dabble in is the 30% rule or the proper medical documentation. Your example of Moffit at SDSU does seem like a student who should have received an additional year of eligibility. The only reason I can think of why he would have been denied is that SDSU was applying for a hardship that occurred at USF about five years ago, was there proper medical documentation available to them in order to win their case? I really don't get why USF didn't apply for the hardship. It seems like they would have won unless there are some details we don't have. Medical documentation is all I can come to on this one. Also possible that I don't fully understand how the rules pertain to athletes who played a partial season, and also possible the NCAA just doesn't give a damn about understanding the partial season rules either. The only special provision applying to transfer student athletes is that they may only use the bylaws of one division (and whichever set of bylaws is most advantageous to the student), but it doesn't apply here at all. There is nothing stating that any student, transfer or otherwise, would have to miss playing time over two seasons to qualify for a hardship. If Duffy is honestly injured to the point that she can not play this season, and a doctor is able to attest to this, then there is no reason I can find why she wouldn't receive another year of eligibility. If she somehow plays a few games in the first half of the season then misses the rest, well then we are at the mercy of the inconsistent NCAA.
