A college football player can be red shirted any time during the season unless he has played a single snap in any game in that specific season.
Basically 3 years out of high school you are eligible for the nfl draft or if you red shirted your freshman year, you can can leave as a sophomore.

While both recipients of grey and red shirts attend classes at a school before participating in football games, the difference is in the player-to-be's time of enrollment:Via John Mackovic of The Desert Sun: "Grey shirt is a term used to designate an incoming freshman who waits until the second semester to enroll rather than the fall. Collegeathletes are allowed a five year calendar to play four seasons. The calendar begins once one is enrolled. By waiting until the spring to start college, a player will be playing his last season in the sixth year after high school rather than the fifth. "In contrast, infoplease.com explains that "When a player is given the "red-shirt" designation by his or her coach, that means he or she has participated in a college's academic year, but did not participate during that year's sports season. Most likely a "red-shirt freshman" in college football is a sophomore in college who practiced with the team his first year, but did not play in any games (at the coach's request), or was seriously injured during his first season." By redshirting, a player gains an opportunity to learn schemes and techniques, rehabilitate an injury, learn a new position and/or physically develop without losing a year of eligibility.
They are expendable. It's just a running gag.
3 years removed from High School. So technically 2 seasons assuming you are red shirted freshman year.
No
Yes she did, she was red shirted, so she could have played another year, but decided not to and to instead go straight to the WNBA
Three full seasons. He only played two games as a sophomore due to an injury, and was red-shirted.
One. Student athletes are given five years to use four years of eligibility to play sports. It does not start over when a student switches sports. Of course there is an exception to this rule (as there seems to be with most rules) and that is if the student was medically red-shirted.

Yes you can be cut from a college football team. If you are not producing enough, are a liability in terms of being a "trouble maker", and see you as someone they can replace they will not hesitate to bring you in and say hand in your equipment. This mostly happens to younger players but in my experience at the collegiate level the coaching staff will essentially clean house. You only have so many roster spots and so many people that can remain on the team even if they are red shirted athletes. My suggestion know the program you are getting into talk to players because what coaches will tell you in the recruiting process is completely different from what you will go through so keep your eyes and ears open before you dive into a bad situation.
