When Shep got the ball in space, he was electric. His problem while he was here was that his hands were subpar to say the least, being that he wasn't a natural receiver.

So after his freshman year, we abandoned all of the packages for him and ran downhill every play instead.

Lovie Smith was going to cut him at Tampa until he sawing him covering a punt return. He saw the heart and desire and decided to use him as a gunner.

Other coaches coached up his catching and route running abilities at Tampa.

Tampa got him off waivers almost 38 months ago.
