Interesting?
It's actually not that interesting considering that Shepard came out of High School rated as a 5 star athlete.
He was not recruited by LSU or any other major colleges as a QB. He was a RB his first year at LSU until a guy from Georgia almost broke him in half. Than the receiver project started...

Shepard was focusing on QB until halfway through the 2009 regular season. Just after the Florida game, Shepard was able to talk Miles into transitioning Shepard to WR. It didn't become official until spring practice 2010.

I didn't recall if it was Georgia or not, but I will never forget the image of RS getting powerlifted then body-slammed into Tiger Stadium turf. This actually happened twice in his career.
