If you redshirt before you transfer, you have to sit out a year and lose a year of eligibility. If you transfer before your redshirt, the year you sit out can be your redshirt year. This is goin for division 1 to division 1. I believe if you go from division 1 to a smaller division, you don't have to sit out a year.

Not necessarily. In Division I and Division II, NCAA programs are limited to the number of scholarships per team (85 players in the FBS, the equivalent of 63 full scholarships in the FCS, and the equivalent of 36 full scholarships in Division II-there are no scholarships allowed in Division III). While a Division I-FBS program will usually retain a incoming freshman on scholarship, the "redshirt" designation has nothing to do with scholarships. Each college athlete is allowed five years of eligibility from the day they enroll in any college. Of those five seasons, only four may be spent actually playing. A redshirt season simply means the player is sitting out a season to retain the extra year of eligibility. This redshirt season is spent learning the program and practicing with the team, earning some experience and maturity. Not all redshirt years occur during a player's first season, although the vast majority do. The FBS eligibility also is counted differently from the FCS and Division II. In the FBS, eligibility is a "clock" system, meaning the clock starts counting down when they first enroll in school, and cannot be stopped. In the lower divisions, the clock does stop if the athlete stops attending school, as long as they don't become a professional in any sport (get paid to play).

Actually, aluminum bats (and those made from other alloys) are, indeed, allowed for play in college baseball.

When you transfer you have to sit out a year. If you transfer within Division I-A. If you transfer to a sub Division I school. no sit out is nessecary.

They are Division I in only Mens' baseball and Womens' Lacrosse. All other sports are Division II. They are considering going to Division I for all sports.
