That statement is really not that far off. Shepard is more electric with the ball that i think a lot of people on here realize. And he does have great leadership qualities.

Shepard is extremely special. I really like Jefferson at qb, but Shepard is gonna give him a serious run. With that said, I hope we play the best guy.

Competition is a good thing, but I don't think there is much of a controversy. I like Shepard in "specialty" packages this year with a triple option, but only if he has the arm to make the throws and the brain to make the right decision.

Does he have all that right now, today at the college level? I don't know, but when Miles trusts him with those two things he will play.

this is probably true.. he was awesome in HS.. however, comparing him to Tim Tebow and Percy Harvin, and a hybrid at that, is pretty ridiculous when he hasnt played a down..
