I don't believe there is any such thing as an "Acceptable Date". Once you decide to take the money in the form of a scholarship, you are now the property of that program. If, as a coach, you are trying to keep your job based on results from the Conference or the National Tournament, and you are forced to pull a red-shirt, then you do it.

It's a business at that level no matter what! As soon as money and jobs come into play... all bets are off.

That being said, unless it could change an outcome, I would be hard pressed to pull the red-shirt of a kid with less than a month left to compete.

I'm glad someone finally committed on this, I know its a business I just was trying to find out everyone's thoughts they pulled Dakota's redshirt with 3 weeks left in the regular season. he redshirted this year because of an injury (ACL Surgery) . You only get four chances to make it to the big show. Dakota has now used up two of his. yes the school looks better at the sacrifice of the athlete.
