they lost shep b/c mack put pressure on shep to commit as a non-QB and OU gets a lot of the top talent in TX b/c kids get turned off to the early high-pressure tactics used by mack.


The reason they lost Shep was because they had Garret Gilbert. While I may get sodomized for saying this, If I was the head coach of Texas and I had to choose between Gilbert and Shepard, I would have picked Gilbert every time. He fits better into their system and is just as good of a prospect as Shep.

I do agree that it's a double edged sword, just not that it's the reason they lost out on Shep.

No, the reason they lost Shep is because his girlfriend was already a student at LSU. That is the only reason he committed so early in the process.
