I know it used to be only 2 seasons of PS eligibility and/or X number of games on the active roster, with exceptions being related to injury.

At least that is how I remember it...

Thanks for the clarification gents

Really too bad about Tennant, hopefully the guy we've got now proves to be teachable. Can't get much better of an O-line coach than Kromer. Dude has absolutely nothing to prove anymore about how to make a great unit, so if he says Tennant had to go I definitely respect his opinion
