Having said that (and I agree with most of it) is it still possible to redshirt Brown?  If so, is it a good idea?

As I understand it, if he participates in four or fewer games he can still redshirt. So far he has participated in one game. He can therefore redshirt. Given what we know now it seems unlikely he will play next week. There are six games remaining.

I would guess that Brown needs to play in at least three games if he is physically able. More than that is questionable IMO. The only way it makes any sense at all would be if he was such a big factor that he could get us four more wins. I don't think the extra game experience would be worth a year of eligibility, especially if he is PUP for the next two games. At that point we are talking only one game of "extra" experience. Others may feel differently.
