Reply to "Red Shirt Freshman on Scholarship"

A redshirt can be a non-scholarship athlete.  A redshirt can also be a true non-recruited walk-on.  The term "redshirt" simply means that a student-athlete did not use one of their four seasons of competitive eligibility during that season. 

Yes, it can be semantics.  Sometimes it's just "coach-speak."  Just like how the term "preferred walk-on" only means whatever that coaching staff intends it to mean in their mind.
