Has there been any discussion about changing the red shirt eligibility rules in NCAA baseball? With the slate of rule changes that came out over the past year, including NJCAA adding a year of eligibility, I was wondering if this has been discussed at all. NCAA allowed players to play 4 games in football and maintain red shirt eligibility. With crowded rosters and uneven schedules throughout baseball conferences, could this make sense for baseball as well? Seems to me to be a better solution than blanket eligibility extensions or staying status quo.
