this profile needs to be edited

whatever issue Tee had I believe he still loved ND and Anthony is set to be an absolute monster with these stats

-1st team MaxPreps Freshman All American
-North Sequoia League Underclassman of the Year
-1st team North Sequoia League

Also the video as these stats that contradict the profile:

He is 6'3 190 lbs

Freshman year (2011) stats-
71 Tackles, 5.5 Sacks, 3 FF, 1 FR

If we have a ten win season or 2 we have a great shot at this kid. My own personal opinion. Based on absolutely nothing other than my gut.

Because he's Tee Shepard's brother. Really don't think any explanation is needed.

Is he at the top of our list?

Couldn't resist.
If Tee does indeed still love ND...there may be a slim chance.

So you don't have one.

This wasn't Steve Spurrier kicking a kid off scholarship. This wasn't Saban having an assistant tell a kid trying to enroll, "Sorry another guy better than you finally got his act together and passed arthimetic. He got the slot. Have you thought about community college?"

Tee has a heart defect which impacts his ability to play. A medical condition he was aware of previously although he didn't grasp the significance. A medical condition ND medical professionals diagnosed and explained the consequences to him. A diagnosis that might well have saved his life.

Tee could have stayed at ND on scholarship as ND puts career ending injury student athletes on non-athletic scholarship in compliance with NCAA regulations. Instead he chose to leave school and go home. Not surprising considering his youth and probably the hope that he could find a different medical opinion elsewhere which would allow him to continue his football dream ala Wenger.

By all accounts his parting was amicable and probably sad all around. In a year or two, Tee and Anthony both may see that there is live after football and ND prepares people for that. Anthony may "go to school" on his brother's situation and make a 40 year decision.

And his brother may well live to see him play because ND diagnosed his condition. Unlike Garrett Uekman, Fred Thompson, Al Smith, Montel Williams, and others whose heart disease was diagnosed by coroners in autopsies.


I've heard of no animosity but you believe there's an impediment which bars Anthony from considering ND. Tell us about your definitive statement.

A much shorter and less serious explanation that BGIFs:

Tee has been spotted on numerous occasions wearin ND gear and still talks to the current players, I don't believe Tee hates ND and wouldnt want his bro going there

Fine I give, you win. I'll just buy off on the fact that Tee left because of his heart condition and not because of grades and not going to class like other knowledgeable posters have stated. I'm sure Tee won't have any effect on his brother's recruitment. Next time I'll be sure to include the "IMO" so my post won't be seen as a definitive statement.

I think you're leaving out the part where he left because he was failing because he didn't go to class.....

This was posted on the BGI board:

I was with his high school coach last week for a football camp and he told me this. "Tee is at Fresno City college and will end up at Washington State". His coach had a lot of great things to say about Tee and that he's still loves ND. His younger brother is a great player and ND fan as well
