Credit An Alum For This One ... And A Shula Will Play For Lafayette

Yet another post from Signing Day. Be sure to keep reading.

Colorado's Daily Sentinel has a neat story about recruit Lane Shipley, a 6-foot-3, 240-pound, two-time All-State offensive and defensive lineman from Steamboat Springs, Colo.. The story says it was an alum who tipped Buddy Teevens off to the former championship skier. Shipley has this to say about this area:
“People told me I wouldn’t like the East Coast because it’s not like living out here. But I went out there, and the town (Hanover, N.H.) was so down-to-earth. People are wearing Carhartts. They have a place to ski, swim, kayak, bike and mountain climb just like home.”
Folks, that's why we are here ...

Former Dartmouth receiver David Shula's son Matt -- a 6-2, 235-pound defensive lineman -- is headed to Lafayette according to this story. David's son Dan was a back quarterback for the Big Green before graduating in 2006. Third son Chris Shula went to Ohio's Miami University as a linebacker.
