Former Penn State wide receiver Chris Bell, who enrolled at Norfolk State, is taking a redshirt this season, Norfolk State sports information director Matt Michalec said Monday.
Bell is practicing with the team, but because he did not complete the spring semester at Penn State, he did not have enough credit hours to become immediately eligible under NCAA guidelines.
Bell, as Penn State fans well know, was removed from the team after police said he pulled a knife on Devon Still in the team's dining commons in a dispute over a cell phone case that Still accused Bell of stealing.
Bell, who starred at Granby High School in the Norfolk area, will have two years of eligibility beginning in 2009.
