Perrin was very young for his class. Seems to have run into an admission issue. Sounds like he will do a semester at a prep school and then join Illini, probably will not play this year. Start as a freshmen next year.
Well, look what the development team did with Super-Hyphy Dane Danja with 6 months extra. This may be the best move for this young man's career ever.

You mean start for the team or being eligible to play?

Doubtful that Perrin will be here to play for the 2nd Semester. He was 18 on August 30th,
Aren’t the reports that he was a class or two short?

Not gonna pretend to be an admissions expert, but if he passes the class(es) he needs to have the minimum credits to attend the university, why does age matter?

Doesn't seem any downside to just letting Perrin enroll for the Summer 2023 term with the rest of the class and then he is good to go as a True Freshman for the 2023-24 season. He would be very unlikely to come in mid-season and get significant tick while trying to work his way in.

The downside is he loses the development he'd have being with the team for ~6 months. And that's pretty big.

Don't play him, unless need dictates (injuries) or he absolutely forces your hand (Krupalija). Burning his redshirt is ~90% a no op.
