He redshirted the 2012 season and he will have to sit out the 2013 season. But he should have three years of eligibility remaining.

kinda like our minor league prospect for theirs?

I thought Hudson looked ok but evidently HCTG and co. didnt see what they wanted in practice, etc

that being said- I'll take the kid w/3 yrs of eligibility left

He'll essentially slide into the same class alongside Javan Shashaty. With Josh having three years of eligibility to go the odds of any kid transferring in and getting serious snaps is limited barring injury.

Any chance he moves to defense? Looks like he was listed as a qb/cb out of H.S.

I was wondering about that. If we had a Jr. or Sr. QB it would be different, but we've pretty well got our QB slot fixed for a while, unless this kid can win the job in the preseason or something.

Of course, I thought that we had Mike Brown's successor fixed in stone too, and look what happened there.

one day and he's already RT libertyflamesnation.com

I like him

How many more new qbs do we need? Hope we dont have 4 qbs on scholarship?
Need them else where

I think we can safely assume that he is a walk-on. Campbell was non-scholarship as well.

Masha will probably RS his first year on the mountain and with this kid sitting out due to transfer rules, we are looking at only 2 QBs (Woodrum and Shashaty) with Henderson probably moving into the "wildcat" package unless they decide to shift him back to QB fulltime to give us a third option in spring ball and next season...that's just my observation though

Benedetto´s career as a Flame consisted of one Spring training. He is no longer enrolled, and according to a tweet from FlamesNation, he is transferring.

I said this in another thread but news of his transferring after spring practice (his only time in a Flames uniform) shows us either how bad he is or how much Shashaty has improved while redshirting and getting reps this past spring. No doubt this sort of thing will give some pause to D2, D3 and NAIA schools that he reaches out to as to where he will land this fall, if anywhere
