Two reasons. 1) Utah State coach that recruited him left. 2) Remember UB was a cluster**** under Mo Linguist, which he made worse when he left late for Alabama. But Lembo made a good impression on players who stayed, many who kept in touch with Dolac. Between the uncertainty at Utah State and the positive vibes coming from UB, Shaun decided to come back. Turned out to be a good choice.
What do you base that assessment on? Because he played in the MAC? If there was a similar player in another conference who led the nation in tackles, would you have the same take? I'll be happy to add him to the Bills. We need more talent at LB.
