Vukovan reporting Hamlin had sports hernia surgery

[goalieman]

Pitt is unlikely to even submit a worthless request for a medical redshirt for him. I certainly haven't seen Narduzzi say they plan to.

I suspect they are exploring options and for the record, the people at Pitt who do this kind of work with NCAA rules are really excellent/smart not morons ....... as you and I agree, it looks from the rules that Hamlin is not a candidate for a medical hardship waiver. There are other waivers such as "Coaches documented misunderstandings" and "Extenuating circumstances" that can be used to save a year of competition but Hamlin doesn't seem to meet those conditions either..... we'll see how it works out ..... maybe Chris Peak can get some info from his contacts.

Agree on all accounts.
