Redshirt.
Shellenberger redshirted, worked out well for him.
Is that ever a player’s decision? If a coach says I want you to play, I can’t see a player say, nah, I’m good, don’t want to burn my year, and just refuse to go in. You could quit the team I suppose if you were committed to leaving the school anyway after the year but that’s not a great advertisement for you going into the portal.
Wouldn't most players interested in redshirting, have that discussion in advance of signing? Yes, Shellenberger and others may see the Fall Ball landscape and decide later they are better off developing their 1st year. They could then save a year they might make less impact. The biggest point, made above, is to select a school where you would be happy, without lacrosse. That makes all the other decisions a lot easier.
not like i'm plugged in everywhere, but redshirts seem to mostly happen organically and in any direction without much conflict.
let's face it, players have been given the "go where you'll be happy" speech for how many years now? players in nc$$ go where they think that can work
with lacrosse. those that get a bump in schools have that in the bank also.

I have always wondered why redshirting isnt more common in lacrosse. You get a year to develop your body, adjust to college, and the college game. Not to mention you get an additional year of school, so assuming things go well you should get 1 year of grad work under your belt. Playing early in football and basketball gets your professional clock started early, that isnt the case in lacrosse. Obvious long term benefits for a program.
Redshirting has its advantages. One of the disadvantages, however, is that you are using scholarship $$$ on someone who isn’t playing. With only 12.6 scholarships available to an entire team, adding a fifth year of scholarship to red shirts dilutes what you have for the rest of the roster. The Patriot League and Ivy League do not allow non- injury red shirts.
Many kids now reclass or do a PG year in order to get the similar advantage of red shirting (bigger, stronger and more mature).

I get that the ACC and B1G10 schools can afford the extra costs. Does anyone know how much $$ they are handing out ? Are the Ivies playing along with this? Patriot league, A 10, CAA, AE, ASUN & MAAC conference teams probably don't have that kind of extra cash lying around to hand out for a non-revenue sport like lacrosse.
