Updated: January 18, 2013
Shon Coleman has been granted another year by the NCAA. The Auburn tackle was able to beat his battle with leukemia and given a sixth year of eligibility.

Medical hardship is the reason Coleman's career was allowed to continue with the Tigers.

He was diagnosed with cancer after signing with Auburn in 2010 but returned to the practice field in the spring of 2011.

He did not play last season.
