Russell Shepard, LSU

He would have scored 25 TDs a year playing QB at Michigan or Oregon.

Instead came to LSU where he played just about everything but QB after falling for a lie.

People keep saying this, however Chip Kelly's first season at Oregon was Shep's freshman year at LSU. How was he supposed to envision the type of offense that Oregon has become so famous for?

that's bull shite. all of it. he might have played qb at a small school but not the big ones. and he was not lied to; he got his shot and just came up short. but, believe what you want to even if it isn't true. by the way, this is an LSU recruiting board so why don't you just run along now.

No he wouldn't have. The guy does not have exceptional quickness or strength, and you'd better have one of those to go along with speed if you want to be a force at QB in the spread offense.
