The Buffalo Bulls forward will get to play next season after missing this year due to injury.
Senior Raheem Johnson has been approved for a medical hardship waiver by the Mid-American Conference office and has been granted an extra year of eligibility for 2016-17. Johnson missed all but one game this season before suffering a season-ending foot injury. He saw 16 minutes of action and had four points and seven rebounds at Iowa State.
A medical redshirt is available to student-athletes who suffer a season-ending injury before the halfway point of the season and before the player competes in at least 30 percent of his team's games or three contests, whichever is greater.
