re: Watch out for Shep

As a senior, the 6-1, 179-pound Shepard rushed for 1,946 yards and 28 touchdowns and threw for 1,843 yards and 20 touchdowns. Shepard also led Cy-Ridge to a 17-5A district championship in 2007. Alongside Matt Barkley, Shepard was considered the top quarterback of the high school class of 2009 by both Rivals.com and Scout.com before converting to wide receiver upon arriving at LSU.
Although Shepard was heavily recruited by Texas and received interests from Florida, Michigan, and USC, he announced his decision to accept a scholarship from Louisiana State University on March 3, 2008. He committed to LSU since he believed he would get the best chance at playing quarterback there. Texas told Shepard that if he didn't win the starting job at quarterback, then he could play other positions. USC likewise found him to be a Reggie Bush-type player in their offense.

He graduated in December 2008 to start his college career a semester early. Shepard stated that he intended to learn the team's football system during LSU's spring practices that year.
He played in the 2009 Under Armour All-America Game on January 4, 2009. As of March 2009, he was ranked as the #3 Athlete on ESPN150 for the high school class of 2009.

Mettenberger attended Oconee County High School in Watkinsville, Georgia. As a senior he threw 2,106 yards passing with 19 touchdowns and six interceptions. He was ranked as the 11th best pro-style quarterback recruit in his class by Rivals.com.

What is the size of Texas? What is the size of Georgia? RS was rated #1 QB in the nation by both Rivals & Scouts coming out of high school and the #3 Athlete. Not only did RS throw for 1800+ yards, he rushed for 1900+ yards. So don't say the guy can't play football; just call it for what it is... The coaching staff has not utilized him to his maximum ability!!! A complete and utter waste of God given talent for whatever reason.

For those of you who were so pissed when Miles played JJ in front of Lee. Same concept, who the hell knows why he does some of things he does. Because he is the head coach, because he can... Most likely so! But don't say RS isn't a good ball player because crazy les doesn't play him!!!! Assinign and Bu11shit!!!
