Mertens

I was under the assumption that Mertens would have gotten a medical redshirt last year and would still be a sophomore. Schmoldt said and rivals lists him as a JR now because he used a redshirt his freshman year.

That's too bad. I wonder if they already used the "medical" route?

If there was ever a reason for one I would think missing the entire season would be one.

I do not know for sure, but I would not be surprised if the additional medical redshirt year is something that the school has to apply for after the initial 5 years have elapsed.

I thought that they had applied for it, but it was turned down? Could be wrong, but I thought I heard that somewhere.
