Given High Fives: 728 Rep Power: 1026 | Probably one of the biggest mysteries of the season at LSU is why this young man is not getting the PT. It would be one thing if he still had his redshirt on his back, but that's not the case. I have heard over and over that Miles is really funny about players that can't hold on to the ball, and Shepphard has definitely had problems just about every game he has played in holding on to the ball. But it really doesn't make sense, when you think about him keeping Lee in there last year game after game throwing the INTs for six over and over again. I've heard from different people around the program, not media, saying that, after the poor showing of JJ, Sheppard is being considered as a possible starter for the Auburn game, and that Miles is considering that ole "alternating the QBs" circus. All I know is, this offense needs a major jump start, and if JJ can't get it going, let's give Shep the opportunity to show his stuff more than just a couple a plays here and there. But I still think, Miles has it in his head that Shep is too big of a fumble risk. We shall see. He would be foolish to transfer, but I understand he was probably promised the cruise ship and the island before he came. |
