Tim Shaw. Still fighting
I remember Pat Perles calling me up when we were going to play Clarencevilke in basketball. He said try to get Shaw in your office before the varsity game. I did. He came in and told him that he’d be a linebacker at MSU because he felt that Shaw could make the nfl as an lb. Shaw said he wanted to play fullback. Perles said we’ll, MSU wouldn’t lie to him.
Anyway, what I remember of him was he was old beyond his age, polite, respectful the whole package great person I saw him a while later spring of his senior year. He had picked PSU. We talked at a regional track meet. Said how Stanford could t recruit him but Notre Dane could. But said when he answered his door one night and saw Joe Parerno on his porch and then eating dinner at his table with him, it was a done deal. Anyway, I just really liked the kid.
He’s dying. He’s still got a great attitude. If you have five minutes watch this

I remember his recruitment. I knew he was in bad shape. I did not like you posting this because when I saw the headline I assumed he probably had passed.
Hang in there dude.

I saw him play football as a junior. Shaw was physically mature, fast and made a lot of the right decisions once a play started. He wasn't a "sleeper". Then saw him run track as a junior. He was Randy Kinder fast with a more powerful start.
Like others I hoped he'd choose MSU, thought umaa or ND would sign him and was surprised when he chose PSU.
Wonder if ALS will be related to brain trauma.

I'm sure it will. So, at that track regional, he was telling me that Ty Willingham came to reruit him. Ty wanted him, but couldn't get him at Stanford, but couldn't get him due to standards. When he knew he was going to ND he called and said don't make a decision yet, we'd like you at ND. Funny how ND can recruit athletes that Stanford can't because of standards.

From last year:
Amazing attitude, ALS is such a shitty disease.
