Medical redshirt still possible, but this Gamecock is treating 2019 as his senior year

D.J. Wonnum still doesn’t know if he’ll be granted a medical redshirt for 2018 after missing the majority of the season with an ankle injury.

But regardless of if he is or not, the South Carolina football star defensive lineman is treating the upcoming season as his final one.

“I’m expecting this to be my senior year. I haven’t really heard much from them,” regarding the medical redshirt, Wonnum said. “But I’m training every day like it’s my last one.”

Coach Will Muschamp announced that USC would pursue the redshirt for Wonnum in the run-up to the Belk Bowl last December.
