…the 6-foot-5 junior guard is recovering from a serious opening-night ankle injury that required surgery, but time is running out for him to make it back as N.C. State pushes into the final full month of the regular season. And even Henderson is unsure when – or if – he’ll make it back this year.
”I really don’t know,” Henderson said. ”If I knew, I’d tell you. For me to be able to go 100 percent and help this team … I know it’s going to take a lot from where I can now to do that.”

02/05/2016 at 2:22 PM #98905FergusWolfParticipantI’m crossing my fingers that he is able to get a medical red-shirt, and hence a 6th year of eligibility. He deserves to be able to play 2 more years if he wants to.
02/05/2016 at 2:29 PM #98906redisgoodParticipantWe’re 12-11. 8 of our losses were by 3,7,5,5,3,7,7,4. Take 25 of Mav’s 33 minutes per game and give them to Henderson…
Oh well.

A lot of people are saying that, even Gott, but I don’t see how it will happen. To get a 6th year, you have to have lost two years due to medical or other circumstances beyond the player’s control. Red-shirting due to the transfer rule is not considered outside the player’s control.
02/05/2016 at 2:39 PM #98910RickKeymasterWhat is the reasoning for the limit of six years?
02/05/2016 at 2:46 PM #98911redisgoodParticipantGood question. The only reason I can think of is because it’s the NCAA. Makes no sense to me.
02/05/2016 at 3:37 PM #98916TheCOWDOGModeratorIt’s 5 years to play 4, not 6. That very special 6th is reserved for the hardest of hard luck cases.
02/05/2016 at 3:39 PM #98918redisgoodParticipantYeah, I figured the 5 years was common knowledge.

Thank you CD you are correct. Sorry I should have asked why five years? Who cares if it takes 5 or 6 or even 7 years to get the 4 years of eligibility?
02/05/2016 at 3:45 PM #98920TheCOWDOGModeratorBecause one could essentially spend half a lifetime developing a kid to be game ready.
02/05/2016 at 4:08 PM #98922redisgoodParticipantJudy Eller Street was 61 when she played collegiate golf. I think her father felt she was finally ready.

If a player is willing why not? There are scholarship limits and incentives for kids to graduate so I don’t see a legitimate reason for an artificial cap of five years.
02/05/2016 at 6:19 PM #98930TheCOWDOGModeratorGood. You support the schol that goes on for 7 years.
Me…I’m thinkin’ the natural cycle.
Ricky. What ya gonna do when yur coaching the kid at 12, and teams are stacked with 20s?

^THIS plus the lack of a true center …
equals a championship season….As stated elsewhere by numerous trained observers…

I am not sure what you are saying

Don’t worry it took me a while to get fluent in CD too. He’s saying, so you want to coach your 12 year olds against a team loaded with 20 year olds?
