A couple years ago, URI star basketball player Dawan Robinson was denied a 6th year as a medical red shirt. He came in as a Prop 48, and had to sit out his freshman season. He got injured before his 3rd year of playing, and sat out the entire season. He graduated, and enrolled in grad courses at URI. He then played the following season, which was his third year playing. He applied for a 6th year at the conclusion of the season, which was denied.
