Sounds like a solid person. Hopefully this story will get some air time instead of all the negative stuff.

Jeez, what a man.  What a human being.  Why, we all ask (I do anyhow) can't we hear more stories like this involving today's athletes, college football players in particular, as opposed to the "usual"?

Took Sports Center 35mins to talk about the story, then talked about it for only 45secs. Kevin Love to Cleveland of course a bigger story. A lot of good coverage on twitter, links to story.

Story out now that this might not be the truth. Nothing firm yet, but it's being investigated.

Go Blue!! Smile

I'm waiting for the truth.

He was drunk and jumped off the deck and hurt himself.

Hate to be so pessimistic but..............

Disappointing if it's proven that the kid lied. Especially to make up a story that you saved a life of a young relative.

Looking at twitter, over 18,000 people retweeted the link to the story, another 11,500 favorite it. A lot of people will be pissed off that a feel good story could turn out to be a hoax.

Reminds me of the kid from ND two years ago. I guess his 15 minutes is up, because I can't remember (or don't care about) his name. Whatever.

Yea this story is bogus. There is a police report on file with his name for what sounds like an altercation at his girl freinds apartment.

Just saw on ESPNU (watching Abilene Christian and Georgia St) that Shaw admitted that he lied and he is suspended indefinitely. No details as to what really happened. Coach said he is extremely disappointed in Shaw.

Go Blue!! Smile

Now he says he was "injured in a fall" and apologizes for not telling the truth. This "fall", and reason, must have been a doozie!!!
