Vanderbilt's Brinae Alexander ruptures Achilles tendon

[Plebe]

"It’s a major blow to the Commodores, who jumped out to a 5-1 record before Alexander’s injury and back-to-back losses. She was the team’s second-leading scorer at 13.4 points per game and its top 3-point shooter with 12 in seven games."

Man tough break for her and for Vandy. Hope she recovers well. Vandy actually looks much improved from a year ago, with only losses to Rutgers, Seton Hall and UCONN. All games were competitive too. Hope they can keep their better play going and that White gets better footing.

I really think that without Alexander's injury, there's no way Vandy goes 0-2 in the Bahamas. Injuries happen, but they've really happened to Vanderbilt in the past few years.

Will she be able to redshirt?

Will she be able to redshirt?

In theory, yes. She's only played in 7 games.

Why in theory? Are the rules "interpreted" like the transfer waivers?

Vandy can't catch a break it seems. Hard to develop a program with constant season ending injuries as much as they have gone through the last few years.

I didn't mean it that way. It should be automatic if she wants it.

Hate to see kids get injured.
