Looking for advice to help our son. Son was recruited by D2 as LHP, in the initial meeting son asked about their thoughts in red shirting..coach said they only had one kid ever red shirt and he didn't even know why they did it. No NLI signed no scholarship, fast forward to now, son has only pitched one inning, so of course kicks himself for believing the coach, son doesn't understand the whole redshirt process so asked the coach if he could coach said no and walked away. Let me also mention since the fall this is only the third time the coach has spoke to our son, so needless to say he was a nervous wreck and didn't ask any other questions. He is trying his best to stay positive but is only given mound time at practice every few weeks, of course he is taking it upon himself to practice quietly so he doesn't get in trouble. Needless to say he believes it time to move on. Question, he is paranoid about putting himself in the portal, is also considering JUCO, if he transfers to a JUCO does that use his one time transfer rule, if it does and he goes the JUCO route and then graduates from the JUCO is that considered another transfer? Thanks for any advice.
