Parker never sat out a year...He just had a bad year.

But Gaines already used up one year for a redshirt so unless he transfers to DII then he'd have to sit out another year.

what im trying to say is gaines knew what he was getting into when he signed. he knew his situation and that was to be a "project"

No game time after 02/11.

I have heard the opposite about him, that he is very willing to learn the game. He is still very raw. I think no game time after 2/11 more has to do with shortening the rotation for the stretch run, and going with the veterans more so than being uncoachable. Then again I am not at practices, so I cannot say definitively.
