Oregonian reports that Rachel plans to apply for another season of eligibility. Does anyone know the NCAA rules on that? She had played in 4 games before getting hurt.

I believe that your are eligible for a waiver of your 4 year eligibility if
1)your injury is in the first 1/2 of the season or
2)you have played less than 3 competition dates or 30% of the season, whichever is greater,
and the injury is considered incapacitating. I think an ACL is pretty automatic in that regard.
Rachel qualifies on all counts.
I'm a little unclear how your 5 year clock comes into play, but Rachel didn't redshirt.
You did save that NCAA manual on your thumb drive, right? rule 14.2.4

Location: Lowry the tailor lived there when boys were boys. In his day he was fond of the gun. He always carried his powder loose in the tail pocket of his coat. He usually had in his mouth a short dudeen; but in an evil moment he put the dudeen, lighted, in the pocket among the powder. Mr. Lowry was an eccentric man.
