He is currently Director of Mergers and Acquisitions at Round Hill Capital in London and a member of the Pennsylvania State University's board of trustees.

His tackle total was 48 (20 solo) and he caused and recovered a fumble, blocked a field goal and broke up two passes.

On the original list of Butkus Award candidates, Short made stops (42 solo), fourth on the team, despite missing the better part of three games with an ankle injury.

Short led the Lions resurgence and topped the squad in tackles en route to first-team All-Big Ten honors.
