Why have we stopped using Shepard in the run game?

I believe I've asked this before, but the dude is too good a weapon not to use in the run game.
shite, it's not like it sucked. Here is a whole highlight video of it working.
Hell, it's like he makes a great run (78 yd TD run) and then we don't see him for 4 weeks.
He's run 8 times this year for 106 yds. took one to the house.

There's no excuse the positigers can use on this one. You gotta use your playmakers.

90% of the time he lines up in the backfield he's tackled for no gain or a loss.

And when you watch he always gets positive yards, wow. Our offense sucks.

Shepard is a situational guy, LSU does not have the coaching capable to use situational guys. they didn't when we had Holliday and they don't have it now with Shep.
Look around at how teams use guys on a situation basis in both the NFL and NCAA. Case in point, Sproles. You can't use Sproles like a Ray Rice, you have to find ways to utilize him.

If Ware can't get more than 3yds rushing, what makes you think Shep could do better?...

Agree 100%. Shep should get 8-10 carries a game. I know he doesn't break many tackles but he is a threat to take it to the house everytime he is on the field.

If you take out his 78 yarder, which inflates that ypc, he has 7 carries for 28 yards.
Still decent, but just pointing that out.

If you look at his YPC over his career you will be surprised. But why use what works?
