Shaw could have been so much better. I have no idea what happened to him. He got progressively worse every year.
I really thought that Shaw was going to turn into a star here while watching him as a freshman. He had knee problems his sophmore year and things were never the same. Got into trouble a couple of times for violating rules (including missing the NCAA's because of a transgression) his sophmore year before eventually being dismissed from the team.
I saw Gordon a couple of times in H.S. and thought he was a really good player. I had heard to that he really wanted to come here. I guess when the players Jarvins was talking about him playing behind (assuming it was before he picked up Hatten) was Omar Cook and Shaw. Still, he could have brought Gordon regardless especially since the kid had to know those two were a year in front of him and still wanted to come.
