Derrick Shepard Jr, the young sophomore upstart who is coming into his own, has jumped on the national radar lately, as he has already recieved offers from multiple schools. And while it initially started as small schools, it has changed tremendously lately, as "Lil Shep" is starting to become big time.
After recieving offers from places such as Cincinnati, Michigan, Georgia Tech, Purdue, and others, Shepard Jr, has taken it in stride.
Despite the Covid-19 pandemic that has ravaged the country and sports community, Shepard Jr. stock iust continues to rapidly rise.
As he will be a junior next year, the scouts, coaches, and top players will be salivating over the 6'4 310 pound young beast of a kid who will be anchoring the Alter line next year. With the expectations always state or bust for Alter, the pressure wont be any different for Lil Shep.
"Junior was getting double teamed all last year, so he already knows what he has to prepare for" Big Shep stated.
"Big Shep" is a coach for Alter as well, so it will be a interesting year to watch. He also played for Meadowdale, which he starred, then to Georgia Tech before heading to the NFL to the Dolphins and the Patriots.
