McManamen?

[Slow Hand]

Just wondering why they didn't redshirt this kid. I watched him play this year and he didn't seem like he was ready. A years worth of development would have done wonders for him. Any thoughts on this?

I actually think of all the "young", "low time" guys he was pretty good. He actually contributed at times. I think guys like Bentz or that red head kid (I can never remember his name) would be better suited with a RS than Mac.

Bentz and Tyser (the red head) are both walk-ons though, so it doesn't really matter one way or the other.

The player that I thought should have been redshirted was Austin Haldorson. To me he has the tools to be a very good MWC player but is just not physically ready. I think by the time he is a Jr./Sr. we are going to wish we that year of eligibility back for him.

Great point on Bentz and Tyser. If Keonta Vernon shows up and becomes a force like I think he can, Papa Shy may be able to RS a guy like Haldorson. Especially of Alan Herndon shows any kind of immediate impact. This fall is going to be SO MUCH FUN!

Agree, wish Haldorson redshirted. He needs to come hang out with me and get fattened up, I'll have him drinking gravy in no time. :lol:

Herndon is another guy who needs to be on my gravy diet. I think he redshirts.

It seems that Mac has all of the essentials and being a Wyoming kid I just thought they would red-shirt him and give him a chance to mature. I always like to see the Wyoming locals do well.........

Unfortunately if you don't redshirt a kid his FR year it's really difficult to RS them later in their career unless they get injured.

Shyatt doesnt red shirt guys, i wouldn't be surprised if no one red shirts next year... Shakir Smith, Bentz, Grabau, McManamen, Hardolson they're all guys that could've/should've red shirted but didn't

Just my opinion, but I don't think we had the depth on the team the last two seasons Coach Shyatt has been here for him to red shirt anyone. As the depth builds on this team, I would not be surprised to see some red shirts in the future (especially if someone's academics are in question).

I agree with this. There wasn't enough depth on this team to redshirt anyone. We'll find out this year how Shyatt feels about red shirting players.
