Reply to "D1 probable redshirt...should he stay or should he go?"

Did he do a Perfect Game Showcase?  You certainly don't need to reveal his his grade but if he received a 9 or a 10 he is most likely D1 material.  An 8 or 8.5 doesn't mean he's not D1, just that he might not be a slam dunk D1 candidate.

Some of the best advice repeated here is "go where you are loved" and I would add "go where you can get on the field and contribute".   If a kid loves playing Baseball it is not as much fun sitting on the bench for 4 years.

Others will correct me if I'm wrong but from my years working in travel organizations that did get players onto high level college programs, I'm pretty sure it is much more rare for players to go from D3 to D1 than it is to go from JUCO to D1.   If your son is determined to play D1 and his advisors are telling him that he is still D1 material, then betting on himself at a JUCO makes sense.

I would 100% take up CABBAGEDAD on his offer to help.   He definitely knows a lot.
