Re: Buss
Greyshirt = year without scholarship $$, or a 4 for 5 type deal
NCAA basically states that once you enroll in a college, you have 5 years to complete 4 years of athletic eligibility. Doesn't matter when you start competing, you have a total of 5 years' of eligibility - except in the extremely rare situations where a hardship waiver (6th year) is provided.
Those 6th years generally are a result of 2 years being lost to medical injury before or at the beginning of the season. The later in the season the injury occurs, the less likely a 6th year waiver is granted.
There is an religious mission exception - which generally only comes into play for LDS/Moron athletes. That exception essentially stops the clock for 1-2 years.
