I said he was a QB. He should have been a backup QB at LSU if he wasn't better than the starters.


if I'm not mistaken he asked to be moved to receiver. He was given multiple snaps at QB his early in his freshman year and didn't perform well.

He really should have been a starting QB at a lesser school if Les was never going to play him at QB here.


that's kinda his fault...he was given the chance to play QB at LSU

You talking about in practice?
He did well running the ball from the QB position in games his freshman year. Or was he always at RB?

it's kind of his fault and very much Les's fault for making him think he would play him at QB. No, I don't believe Les ever really considered Shep a candidate for starting QB at LSU when he recruited him.
