Why are you stuck on that?
Okay, so he was the #1 recruit...but, if he's better suited to fill another position with the team, and plays excellent in that role, then who cares?

I agree with this. Not that I am stuck on him being QB, but if he does develop into the next Percy Harvin, heck I'll be happy. But when it all boils down at the end of the day, I'm still disappointed because of the importance of the QB position, and if we never see him at least get a shot at being a QB in his career at LSU, yes I'll be upset.

Lets look at things we know
1. Shep is very unselfish and team player
2. He came to LSU as a QB and knew a hybrid role was possible.
3. We had a young QB already with lots of promise.
Im sure he and Miles have talked and he knows that his best shot to the pros is at wr. How many run first qbs have we seen in the NFL? V Young has a good game now and then, but none really. Shep doesnt have a Vick arm to work with. Not NFL strength. He does have a ton of speed and moves. Plus Harvin gettin ROY prolly made this even easier, not to mention bringing in the coach that got Harvin to this point. The staff may not have given him a completely fair shake at QB, but from an unbiased standpoint it was for his own good. It seems Les is pulling out all the stops to make RS as successful as he told him he would.
sorry so long
