Prior to serving a one and a half year prison sentence in 2006 for running an illegal dog-fighting ring, Michael Vick was an All-Pro quarterback in the NFL. Since high school, Vick was widely regarded as the top running quarterback in the game and thought to be the future of the National Football League. After his release from prison, Vick signed with the Philadelphia Eagles where he was delegated to a backup role…until now. Last week Sunday, he started his first NFL game since 2006 and will be the starting quarterback for the rest of the season.
Coach Eric Shin weighs in on Vick’s play and how he is reinventing himself in the NFL post jail time.
Born and raised here in Hawaii, Coach Eric Shin is moving up quickly in the high school coaching ranks. Although he is currently working with the Mililani football team, specifically with the wide receivers, Coach Shin, has also coached at Kaiser, Kalani, and Anuenue. He has played at the high school, collegiate, and semi-professional levels. Besides “majoring” in football, Coach Shin also has a public relations degree from the University of Hawaii, where he went to school after playing college football in the mainland.
I love Eric Shin. He's a stand-up kind of guy.
