This happened to Boston University's Dave Sacco.  He got uninjured under
a similar time frame his freshman year and received a medical redshirt.
His career statistics show that his senior season, when he earned
All-American honors, was his fifth as a Terrier.
 
Chris O'Sullivan, who matriculated to BU during the spring semester,
suffered an injury in his first game, which was played in January.  He
received a medical redshirt as well.
