Warrior10 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I think people were more saying if we miss out on Bussey we don't need to "reach". We hadn't been in contact with many other RB's so I think people feared we would have to start talking to "leftovers". But then people were surprised when a player of this caliber was available/interested. Quote Link to comment

That's the thing, this guy is nowhere near a reach and is a VERY solid looking RB who fits a pro style offense very well Quote Link to comment

By no means did I mean that. I was alluding to BakerMark saying "I thought we didn't need Bussey so just "pass" and fill other needs?" Quote Link to comment

Others were suggesting when we lost Bussey that we've got enough depth at RB to pass this year and go after other needed positions. But if you have a great player fall in your lap and they're interested... changes the narrative a bit. Quote Link to comment
Thanks_Tom RR Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I could only find his junior film. Shaw looks quite different from the other two recent RB offers. He runs mostly between the tackles (not as much lateral ability as the other two) and takes on contact but does have enough burst to make the defense pay if they don't get their hands on him. I would compare him more with Cross and Taylor rather than Ameer (Wilbon or Newby). Quote Link to comment

Sucks losing Bussey but since we did, if we don't get one this year it's not a disaster. However, if you can get in with another good one, then take him. Quote Link to comment
Bigred_inSD Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 The real question. Would this guy have been the star of that horrible MTV series two a days they filmed at Hoover a few years ago? Quote Link to comment

He maybe would have been but pretty sure they haven't filmed that that for quite a few years now. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Bradrick Shaw @bradricks27 41m41 minutes ago I would also like to take the time to say that I am officially committed to the University of Wisconsin #OnWisconsin Quote Link to comment
DrinkinwitTerrellFarley Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Big frame that fits Wisconsin running backs.....they don't ever go shopping looking for the next Jacquizz Rodgers or Darren Sproles. Although Wisky getting an elite QB or WR crew would raise more eyebrows around here. Quote Link to comment
