Shipley to return kickoff's

[centexorange]

Add yet one more role for this young man
The Link

 

[Third Coast]

To the house!

Not a big deal since there are very few kickoffs to return.

 

[wadster]

Did it all last year and much of the first part of this year. Nothing new here.

 

[Tan Ted Deki]

Shipley is the single most important player for this year's team in my opinion. This just adds to his impact on the game.

it also... I'm not even gonna say it... (knockng on wood)

 

[Hu_Fan]

I hope he only has a chance to run back one or two in each of the remaining games.

Maybe I've been drinking, but I thought our 2 deep on KOR was Shipley left and Monroe right?

 

[toucan82]

I think I saw Malcolm Williams back there with Monroe a couple of times, but I had also been drinking.

jWhile some internet posters have been too hard on DJ, BO's pt is valid. The potential for inj to Jordan just went up. Part of the transformation a young man experiences involves getting a full picture of how your behavior effects others.

Having said all of that, I'm glad to see Ship back there. Even so, I hope he doesn't have one return. In an ideal world, we would begin the game by kicking off and then stake out a comfortable first half lead.

What's Shipley ever done on a KR?

 

[CraigHorn]

 

[bevocbs]

Shipley has been the 2nd string KR all year and has returned several. It has been DJ & Malcom as 1st sting and Shipley as the 3rd option. So it is no surprise that he will be in there.

 

[ViperHorn]

No surprise but exposes Shipley to unnecessary risk. Even if the DWI is erased, he was out after curfew. Not exactly putting the team above self.

 

[Statalyzer]

There's a word missing from the post title. What exactly that belongs to kickoff is Shipley going to return?

 

[Bayerithe]

Whenever I watch Shipley, the thing I am most amazed with are how quickly his feet move. Watching thing that replay, he's moving fast as heck, but his feet move in hyperdrive. His footwork is amazing, it's no wonder how he beats DB's constantly with his double moves (his post in and up move comes to mind in the Colorado game, or was it Mizzou?)

 

[GHoward]

I really don't understand when people say it exposes him to more risk of injury. He will run back at most 3 or 4 kickoffs. He probably has more of a risk getting hurt by catching a pass in the middle of the field. Plus whens the last time one of out KR was injured during a KO?

Hodges Mitchell toted the ball a lot more times than he returned KO's...

Hated to see him go out like that
