shull-jimmy8.jpgI’ve received several inquiries from people who have come here for the first time because of the scoop on Jimmy Shull’s injury, and the general thrust of their questions is "Are you sure?"

Let me say, yes, I am. I received the information from a player, I had it confirmed by another. I’m prepared to say it’s genuine.

And it sucks. Shull’s one of those kids that is so unpretentious, you just want it all to work out for him, and quickly. This will throw a kink in his career path, but I’ve little doubt that if it’s possible for him to come back as good, he’ll come back as good – or better.
