Per the Charlotte Observer: Spencer Shuey was interviewed for a college football returns piece. Shuey, a former South Mecklenburg High School Linebacker and Running Back from the 2008 semi finalist team, shares his rise on the Tiger football team and how the addition of Brent Venables has changed this defense around. Interesting enough, Shuey also calls out the importance of redshirting, something that has been of noted as inconsistently applied for many incoming recruits. "It may not seem like it now, but you'll thankful for this one day when you look back" said Shuey...."You'll realize you didn't waste a year just playing special teams. It's definitely better to concentrate on yourself, to get stronger and faster, and then you'll get a chance to excel."
