Plyler on Shatley: "If you love watching Chad Diehl blow up linebackers like he did in the South Carolina game then you are going to like following Shatley. He is that old style football player. This throwback player loves contact and it showed during the Shrine Bowl. He can play several positions but his toughness will add to the running game with his dominating blocking."
