Center Russell Barlow isn’t in a redshirt season anymore.
TCU lost its ability to redshirt the true freshman when he entered Saturday’s game against Kansas State. Barlow entered with 19:08 left in the first half, replacing Kevin Samuel who drew an early foul.
Barlow scored the first points of his college career a few minutes later.
TCU hoped to redshirt Barlow this season, but the team is battling depth issues. Big men Yuat Alok and Angus McWilliam sustained season-ending injuries and are in the NCAA transfer portal (Alok recently committed to Central Florida).
