Redshirting in Road to Glory
 

I created an elite RB recruit to play at Ohio State in hopes that I would sit behind Henderson and Judkins for the entire year, but to my mismay; I was put into the 4th quarter of a blowout of Akron in the first game. (Kudos to the CPU subbing out the starters though)

I may have to lower the overall if I want to redshirt, if that’s even a thing.

If someone has tested the redshirting idea in RTG, please confirm here that it is possible.

Worst case scenario is if you sit the whole season without playing a down, then next season you’re a sophomore.

FYI, college rules have changed in the past 5 years so that you can play in up to 4 games and still be eligible for a redshirt. And in this game if you are eligible for a redshirt at the end of a season, the game will automatically apply it to you.

As long as you don't feature in 4 more games your freshman season, you should still be able to redshirt.

It's possible. I created an underdog QB and redshirted my first season.

did not work for me. created an underdog QB. did not play in any games, but became a sophomore the next season.

was even third string. saved all upgrade points until 2nd season

Maybe the coach doesn't like you and doesn't want you around another year?

I restarted, forced myself to become academically ineligible, that gave me a redshirt. lol

Re: Redshirting in Road to Glory
 

Same for me. Didn't play a down in the first season, was not red-shirted.

They should give you an option to redshirt in RTG. Hopefully they will patch that. You should be asked before the season as well as after the season if you are eligible to.


I have not played RTG yet. Question: Do they allow / prompt you if you want to enter the Transfer Portal?
