He said he’s significantly bigger and faster than Ernest Graham was. He could play linebacker or running back at UF.

I’ve seen a few highlights on ch 20 out of Gainesville, hes a stud running the ball but will probably see the field next year at LB.

He’s the engine behind the Buchholz football team.

Have they ever been undefeated?

8-0 and ranked eighth in the state.

I love that they decided to move to Gainesville so he could be close to the program. I bet he’s doing what he can with S&C, nutrition, film etc. even as he’s finishing high school and leading their team.

Shane has a very good eye for talent.

We need to rethink him playing linebacker. He just made that football field look like it was 25 yds long

A LB with the speed and quickness of a RB.

6'1" - 215 lbs. A little light for LB.

Perfect for RB.

He'll gain more weight once he gets to UF. All of his ratings are as an LB. That's what we are recruiting him as. It is easy finding RBs. It is tough finding elite LBs with his speed. There aren't a lot of those guys.

Buchholz won the state title in 1990 on the back of an unstoppable RB Tyrone Baker running for about a million yards. I was at the game.

Baker then became a Gator who did absolutely nothing, and was buried on Spurrier's bench. Saw him mainly on special teams.

He was in the same class as Eli Williams and Fred Taylor(94). I’ve seen a bail bonds billboard with his name on it. Assuming that’s him.

I don't recall who the coach was, but I recall one saying a lot of the greatest LBs hehad coached had previously played running back. Makes sense I guess.

Growing up in Michigan, in junior high and HS, almost all the really good RBs of size played 2 ways as LBs
My kid's HS had a really good football team and the star running back from their class played safety on defense, but he crowded the line a lot like an extra LB. He was recruited as a RB to tOSU and now is a starter for them at..............LB.
