Scholarship grid shows no eligibility remaining for Davis. Doubt the grid is wrong. Injury waiver possible?
I appreciate your confidence in me, however, I went by the official roster, which was wrong. Davis signed in 2015, and the roster treated that as a redshirt year. However, he actually gray shirted in 2015, attending Parkland College in the fall and joining the Illini in the spring of 2016. (I believe he could have qualified for a redshirt in 2016 as well.) In any event, the 5 year clock to play 4 years started ticking in 2016, so he has one additional year of eligibility.
Also, I have him playing in only three games this year, for what it's worth. I'll update the grid in a couple of days. December/January is kind of a busy period for me. I think I'll remove the portal players since, as Drew had reported, Lovie is counting them as open scholarships.
