Some potential good news here: It appears that freshman basketball center Ejike Obinna is potentially eligible for a medical redshirt, per some communication I just had with Vanderbilt.
The cutoff is 30 percent of games, and since he's played nine, it puts him just under the threshold.
I'm in the process of asking some follow-up questions, because I don't know what the process of that looks like, and if he automatically gets it if, say, it's just an illness that sidelines him for two weeks when he could potentially play the last few weeks of the season. I'll share that when I find out, but wanted you guys to know what I've learned for now.
