Shirley has left UW

Lost a decent, situational pass rusher. Not a huge blow but I would have been happier if he was still at UW for his senior year.
I'm sure he was shown the door for a reason though. It's not real surprising that an overhyped recruit, with known character issues, that dropped to the bottom of Sark's depth chart would not stick around for his senior season with a new staff known to have higher standards. -
So what we are agreeing on here is he didn't come close to living up to the hype.Tequilla said:Shirley's a one-trick pony that rushes the passer with a speed move.
As RoadDawg mentioned, he's not great but he's not terrible. He's not a waste of a roster spot on an 85 man roster ... but at the same time you're not relying on him to be great. -
He didn't live up to the hype because his coach was FFS, hth.

This whole thread sounds exactly like what was going on on doogman when Coach Willingham started running off players, some of whom had issues,yes, but still....could play.
THis whole thread belongs over on doogman

I thought Wilcox was a fucking genius or something, no?

So you're not saying he is TW, or comparing him to TW, but we should be asking questions? A lot of twisting going on here.ApostleofGrief said:

Shirley was a Sark guy but was reduced to a situational player under Sark. He's not a big loss. HTH -
the whole thing is less extreme than under TW. Peterman is much better. But, it still sounds ominously like the talk going on on doogman when, eg., Chambers was run off.

Every time he entered the game we immediately knew what the opposing team's gameplan was. They'd line up and run directly at him. He'd crumble like a house of cards every time.
I'll always remember him on a slightly fond manner for his performance against Baylor, didn't he have like 7 sacks in the game? -
Shirley was a good pass-rushing specialist when Kikaha wasn't around and before Cory Littleton showed up. His best years were the two years that Kikaha was injured and when Littleton was not here/redshirting.
I suppose with Shirley gone, that moves Jojo Mathis and Marcus Farria up the depth chart. Too bad Sark burned both their redshirts last year. -
This isn't about Wilcox. Or is fat fucking Sark not responsible for his players and assistant coaches?MikeDamone said:
