One of the worst parts about the roster Butch inherited was not being able to RS many guys

[peach_cobler]

Players that should have been redshirted but were needed for special teams or as sparingly used backups:
Foreman
Cortez McDowell
Berry twins
Jakob Johnson
Kyle Phillips
John Kelly
Austin Smith
Abernathy
Sapp
Picou
Jones
Hall
Darrell Miller

We were able to do it a little more last year (Richmond, Boulware, Taylor), but it's going to be really nice to be able to start redshirting more really good players here in the near future. That RS year is huge for allowing these kids to adjust to CFB....some of them gain like 50 lbs in their first year, which means they're literally a completely different player their 1st year compared to their last 3/4
