Miller to Cal! Wow. The reverse Brennan Scarlett. Perhaps he thought he would retire, but was lured back into playing at another school. Who knows. Added destination in notes. Could have really used him this year, but best of luck to him.
I have made an update to the grid. I checked games played for each player who has burned shirts to doublecheck their status and some revisions are in order.
First, I found that three rising sophomores who had been marked as playing five games last year have now been marked as having played only four, which means that they did not in fact burn their shirts:
OT Fisher Anderson
CB Collin Wright
S Scotty Edwards
This is not a shocking situation. The in-season game reports are famously inaccurate, and are likely revised after the season concludes.
Second, as has been noted, there were four rising juniors who had burned their shirts who played four games or fewer last season, and have thus regained their redshirt:
WR Jayson Raines, 3 games played
S Caleb Ellis, 3 games played
CB Jimmy Wyrick, 4 games played
CB Jaden Slocumb, 2 games played
Finally, I belatedly found that Spencer Jorgensen only played three games in 2020. Now, the 2020 season does not count for eligibility purposes anyway, so this is academic, but nevertheless he is playing his fourth and last season of ordinary season eligibility as a fifth year senior, so I removed the asterisk.
At any rate, it is interesting that in the player bios it makes a point of specifically stating that certain players only played four games various seasons and thus retain eligibility. It makes me wonder what TT's strategy will be in playing the redshirt game.
