Perhaps a dumb question but what exactly is an academic red shirt?

It's like a dunce cap that prevents you from playing basketball for a year.

Stupid? didn't do his work?
Figured it was along those lines, but the phrasing made me think it was a conscious decision on his part to devote more time to academics. Too bad, I was looking forward to watching him play.
Well, Emeka sort of devoted more time to academics by only sleeping 4 hours a night, or that's what I recall anyway. But he doesn't really count, too much of an outlier.While a noble thought...has that ever happened?
It's actually new for this year. He gets to practice, but not play.
Basically means that he was too far away in his core work to make up the ground entirely during his senior year. It's to prevent those miracle comebacks where some kid gets five core classes done over one summer session.

Ummmmmmmm no... This has been around a few years.. I don't want to kill STM for this, I need more information, just unfortunate. I'm dead serious when I say this, with him they might have repeated.
