For the best

Removes the distraction and Shipley is just better. Good luck to him.

Indeed


Sep 20, 2021, 8:29 PM

and there is more to the story behind that.

No clue on the rest of the story

but Shipley is better. Lyn J was an excellent back up RB here. Right decision for all involved

I think Dixon should "Man Up" and do his job,,, I guess he forgot how that worked out for Kelly Bryant and Tavian Feaster........ some people just think everything should be handed to him. If he wanted to be the be number 1 back, he could have been, had the speed and talent, and maybe even the heart, but not the desire to compete for it. Good luck, son, but you just made the 1st big mistake of your soon to be short career....most likely!

Actually it worked out well for Feaster. Bryant, not so much. But if a player decides he is better off elsewhere, I don't think we should discard him as not being any good anyway. He was good enough to be recruited to Clemson after all.

You can't really fault him. I'm actually surprised he stayed this long.
Nobody wants to be #2, but that is just the way the chips fell.

The Spiller baggage combined with the lack of offense would probably be enough to push anyone past that line in his situation.


Shipley has a higher ceiling and you can tell he's giving it his all every time he gets a touch.

I don't know anything about Lyn J's "story" but I do know there has to more to it than not being the starter or CJ Spiller. I'm going to trust Dabo on this one

Pretty sure LJ did something that wasn’t illegal or immoral but just really stupid. In the business he would probably would have gotten fired for being “insubordinate”. Good luck to him, people make mistakes, but mistakes come with consequences.
