Class of 2015 OLB Shyheim (Shy) Cullen (MA) Signed LOI

Shy seems to have the genetics to go into bodybuilding if he wanted to. I want to watch him crush running backs, quarterbacks and wide receivers personally.

In my line of work you rarely see kids with his drive and ambition. Most kids these days want everything handed to them. He will do fine with his attitude and work ethic, regardless of what type of S&C program he is provided. I know as a father you worry about all of the details. My son is only seven but I am sure I will be the same way you are. (I already am in a way). Can't wait to see Shy play this year or next.

The point I am trying to make is that Shy is in really, really good hands here. :)

Yeah, Hicks has received the honor of the best S&C guy in the business, right?

Shhhhh...no need for that fact to hit the board. Don't you know that Hicks and crew are responsible for all of the injuries last season?

Yeah, Dwight Freeney is a moron for coming back to SU in the offseason to train with Hicks. I am surprised he hasn't retired yet with all of the injuries he has sustained training with Hicks. :blah:

I really can't wait for shy to get out of this town. Actually I really can't wait for all of us to get out of this town. Last summer we had to tell our 20 year old daughter her friend couldn't come to the house anymore. Her friend's mother was blaming our daughter for her daughter getting in trouble all the time. We told her to stop hanging around with her which she fought for a while before finally cutting ties. Well this is that girls mother. This happens a couple blocks from our house.

Bambrewer, these people or gangbangers or whatever you want to call them are cowards. I work in a town with about 40,000 people just north of Charlotte and had a similar occurrence take place last month. There was a seven year old boy in the room ajacent to where the four shots came through the wall. Would love to get good proof as to who it was so I could go snatch him up.

The good news is that I don't think there are many problems near the university. I could be wrong, considering it has been about 25 years since I worked up there. It is a shame that good people have to be subjected to that type of behavior from cowards. Also glad nobody was hurt.
 
I know things like this happen in a lot of places. It s just really crazy when it happens right next to your house. This was probably gang related but I am also sure it wasnt the mother being targeted. Thats what makes it even worse...these idiots dont care who gets killed. I am tired of hearing gun shots at night police sirens ambulances etc. Its hard watching your kids walk to school knowing some idiot kid with a gun might try and shoot someone next to your kid and they end up hitting your kid. I dont want to raise another kid in this town. JJ is going to be a year old in a couple weeks and I dont want him climbing on city buses to go to school at 14 years old. If we dont get out of this town in the next 4 years Im homing schooling him. I cant tell you how many times I ve had to warn our older kids about not flipping someone of in their car because they cut them off or something. I can't tell you how many times Ive had a dream in the last 4 years that looks exactly like boyz in the hood but its Shy walking home from the gym or practice. Thank you all for the thoughts. Im just getting tired of it and cant wait for Shy to be up at Syracuse.
 
Been a while since I posted any updates so I figured I'd give you guys one. Shy is still doing well in school looks to be honor roll again this quarter. It's kinda precarious the way this quarter and next quarter are. They missed so much time this quarter with snow and next quarter is already short so every test every homework is huge. It's like all his work counts double... Though he only has half the work of a normal quarter. He is taking the sat agian tomorrow just trying to improve his score thought technically he doesn't need to. He will take t and the act 3 more times before July.

You have seen the pictures of him working out. We are going 4 days a week as the s&c dept wants and following there plan exactly. I'm still not a fan of the workout but it is what it is. The last couple days shy has been pretty bummed about his performance. I've had to explain to him repeatedly how it's a different workout the numbers won't be the same.for example he is benching 275 for 8 right now and is struggling with it. When before he felt good benching 325 for 3. He isn't equating the new reps and the order the plan calls for changing what he can do... He just sees lower numbers and harder work. Like wise as this morning he was struggling dumbbell benching 80 lb Dumbbells ( we didn't do many dumbell exercises before mostly straight bar) it's not that he can't bench 160 lbs it's his forearms are not used to controlling the dumbells. I show him even at week 2 he is going up and controlling the weight better. Just a lot of motions we didn't do. He is feeling weak right now though. He is afraid he will get on campus and all the other kids will be way ahead. So this morning I talked about it's only week 2 of 16 more weeks till he gets to campus and just keep eating lifting and taking protien and he will show up and be the athletic freak he wants to be lol.
 
So happy to hear that he will make honor roll again this quarter. Now just make sure he has the right ID when he goes tomorrow. ;)

Thanks for these updates - always interesting to get a behind the scenes view of the hard work that goes into being a D1 athelete both on and off the field. Can't wait to see Shy in Orange!
 
It is a different animal doing low rep high weight and high rep medium weight. Tell him to keep his chin up and he'll figure this all out.
