Watching LSU Florida State game and overheard one of the commentators say that one of the players had seven years in college football? I don’t know that much about college sports, but even if you take into account red shirting and the extra COVID time, seven years doesn’t seem like it should be possible.

Everyone starts with 4 years of eligibility. Add 1 year for normal redshirt. Everyone who was in college in 2020 got 1 extra year of eligibility so that’s 2. Now we’re at 6. A 2nd redshirt year can be granted for medical reasons but it has to be approved by the NCAA I believe. So that’s 7 years. It’s definitely unusual but possible for some players.
