A player that greyshirts starts his 5 year athletic eligibility the 2nd semester of his first year. He can then redshirt the following year and have 3.5 years of eligibility remaining. Since football is a first semester sport, he can then play 4 full seasons of football, having practiced with the team an additional 2 years, one as a grey shirt (practicing in the fall but not becoming a student until the spring) and one as a red shirt (enrolled and practicing, but not appearing in a game).
