re: I want to talk about Sheperd and the possibility of him being a cancer

He posted on Twitter that he was going to write a book about his LSU experience called "The Truth."

We had to expect a lot of the players to leave.
Mingo and Montgomery were both 1st rounders.
Minter and Reid both were graduated and high round choices.
Now a lot of the other guys were surprises. But then again they may have their reasons.

One of the big things I noticed at the Arkansas game. He played on kick off. A guy that on offense is going to go in and contribute will be around the offensive coaches. Shep was by himself. Not by the coaches, or around any team member. Don't know if he had a chip on his shoulder and it was possible that some attitude was holding him out. Nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors.
