Why did Shelton choose Miami? Answer inside........

[Nublar7]

:nublar:

What made the Dolphins most alluring to LT L.J. Shelton wasn't the Miami night life, the climate, the chance to join an up-and-coming team, the absence of a state income tax or even the contract offer. It was the opportunity to play for line coach Hudson Houck. Upon meeting Houck, Shelton came away so impressed he said he would play for him even if it meant accepting $1 million less. Shelton, 30, who never has played to his potential in seven seasons with the Cardinals and Browns, believes Houck can take his game to the next level. It should be noted Shelton is precisely the type of blocker with whom Houck tends to excel.

That probably is less money than he thought he could get.

Did you guys know that Jimmy Johnson tried to hire Houck in 1996? He would have been the oline/assistant head coach here.
