Thank you for the kind explanation. There is a article in the advocate in which Shepard explains his move to receiver and shares his love for LSU you should read. Shepard happy with move "About halftime of the Florida game, I realized I could contribute to this team, but (Jordan Jefferson) is our quarterback and he's going to be our leader," Shepard said Monday on the first day of spring practice for his sophomore season. "He has both intangibles: He can run and pass. So I decided I was going to go talk to (LSU coach Les Miles) and tell him I wanted to move to receiver." "He's all receiver in his mind, with running back as a sidelight," said Miles, who said in January he envi-sioned Shepard in a role similar to how Florida used former star Percy Harvin. "This gets him on the field all the time." Which should alleviate any frustration Shepard might've felt last season when he was often a spectator while the Tigers' offense sputtered and stalled. "Man, I love it here," the ever-ebullient Shepard said. "I never had one thought about leaving this school. It's a wonderful opportunity to play for LSU and this fan base. It's an amazing feeling to be part of this pro-gram, and I don't regret coming here one bit. "I think coach Miles has gone above and beyond to give me every chance he could as a young player and I'm excited about what I can do this season to make a big impact." What a nice young man!
