For the 14 players who redshirted last season, this spring practice presents an opportunity that wasn’t there during the fall – to shine in front of the coaches.
Once the decision is made to redshirt a player, there aren’t a lot of reps for those players with the first, second or third units. The coaches did have a chance to see their peers – the ones who didn’t redshirt – and will have their eyes on the newcomers who came in during January.
These guys need to shine, and we will take a look at each one of the players that redshirted last season.
