Tanner Shipley of Wilsonville is right up at the top of our 2013 Oregon Prospect Watch List. And a finer athlete who can do it all you will not find. This past weekend was a typical Shipley game. He intercpets balls, scores on special teams, runs long ones in out of the backfield, and catches passes at will.
He can not be pigeon holed into one position or the other because the 6'2"- 185 pound Wildcat can really offer a lot of things. That makes him a hot prospect. BYU offered and he committed but then pulled back realizing he had jumped the gun. The OSU Beavers offered about that time and there are storng indications that Boise State and Washington State are loving his 2012 efforts.
Get to know Tanner a little bit better here in the 2 Minute Drill.
