Hi Rick, can you help explain to me the rules around DIII medical redshirt. Son got injured during practice a few days before the season starts. Does he have to have zero affiliation with the team during a medical redshirt? Ie trip to florida, etc.

Having "zero affiliation with the team" is only necessary to redshirt as a D3 athlete if no season-ending injury or illness is involved. If your son's injury is serious enough to be a "season-ending" injury as determined by a doctor, your son doesn't have to separate from the team.
