U mean like playing ray ray out of position and having shield plays wr?
Yes. The talent was so great for each of those players that they could play out of position during years where the team was thin at other positions. The talent was so great that both still made it to the league. Now, refer to Richts comments this Spring, he isn't quit sure that their is a safety that can play out of position. He pretty much said the summer couldn't get here fast enough so that he can try to find one within the new class of freshmen.
Just curios are you actually tickling randys balls right now or nah? Ray ray was a mediocre safety at best and sheields sucked at wr.....he wasted their talents
Miss Thang, I'm not into that. What you do in your personal life is your business so you can be curios about all the balls you like...
Wasted talents???

He didn’t waste their talents. He did what was best for the team and still put them in position to play on the next level which is what they accomplished.
False, Golden saved Shields career by moving him to CB, might've been goldens only good personell decision.
Don't be a dumb *** your whole life... Do you even know why he played WR to begin with? Do you know why he was able to move back to CB? Learn about the state of the U during that time period when you do that you will have a better understanding why certain players had to play out of position.
