    Because special teams is 1/3 of the team and just as important as offense or defense.

    Can you dress and not play and still be a redshirt?

    I think it's a good idea to give these guys some playing time this year so they are ready in case of injury and will have experience going into next year. I'm sure they will play more than just special teams as the year goes on.

    I agree. I think they are easing them in.

    My stance on redshirts has always been the same. You put up your depth charts for offense, defense, and special teams. If you aren't 2 deep (3 deep on some positions) or 1 deep on ST, then redshirt. We know if you are on the roster, you will see the field in Bohl's system. If a freshman is looking at a dozen plays all year, redshirt him.

    As far as special teams: There were 357 special team plays last year between kickoffs, punts, and XPs on both sides of the ball. That is almost 24 plays a game. I would say special teams are pretty significant. That would be 24 more plays a game where key players in other parts of the game can take a breather.
