I know LSU is loaded, but these are some uber talents.

Wow... Sheppard will probably hurt more than Claiborne, especially with new talent at the QB position.

From what I've heard Sheppard is going for reasons other than a positive review from the NFL

He got 3 plays in the championship game i read and the 5star true freshman had taken his job.

Yeah, Sheppard only played 3 plays in the NCG. I dunno why, but I guess they didn't value him too much.

Maybe Sheppard should have followed Darron Thomas' lead? Aren't they cousins?

4th round at best according to McShay. Could go undrafted.

Actually…..Mo is the biggest lost of all the players that we are losing this year. Though he is a huge talent, we are SOOOOOOOO deep at that position it will be okay. Next year or defense is going to be SICK…can’t wait.

This is the thing with Shepard…he never really developed. He came out as the number one athlete in high school. We tried to convert him from a QB to receiver because he didn’t have a strong enough harm but other than making a few big plays here and there he never rally panned out to be a solid contributor. A lot of that has to do with the poor QB play for the past 3 years but that is another story. I personally love the kid and I am a little shocked he is leaving but I can’t blame him. Odell Beckham Jr is going to be lights out next year and Landry is going to be a bawler.

I really wanted both guys to play with Mett next year but we have the talent to replace them.
