doesn't play in an actual game. I think that Rose will name his redshirts before the Long Beach State game. If someone gets injured and is out for the season (or a long time) and Rose wants to take a redshirt off someone he can.
Right now we have 18 players listed on our Roster, Jordan Ellis (walk-on) won't suit up and Kyle Davis (transfer) can't suit up. So to get down to the 13 player travel limit I think Rose will redshirt three players from among the following list; Ryan Andrus, Dalton Nixon, Jordan Chatman or Frank Bartley IV. Another option could be that he will just leave a player or two (say Skyler Halford and/or Josh Sharp) home during conference travel games and carry 14 or 15 (including walk-on's) at home...
In any event, we should know the Coach's plans by November 14th.
