I've seen several examples. Redshirting the first year allows the player to see competition in practice and adjust to the speed of the game. I've seen this with a home-schooled kid who went to HS for his senior year and wanted to play school baseball (small school) and another home schooled kid who didn't play any HS ball. The first was a position player who had solid swing mechanics, quick hands and a big frame. The second was a pitcher with a nasty 2 seamer.
