Mississippi State beefed up their offensive line class Monday with the addition of Germantown (Tenn.) three-star offensive tackle Kison Shepard.
Shepard is the third commitment on the offensive line for Mississippi State. He joins Winona (Miss.) three-star T.J. Lockhart and a fellow Memphis area product in Lausanne Collegiate (Tenn.) three-star Luke Work.
Shepard racked up numerous Power Five offers during his recruitment, including Ole Miss, Texas A&M, Texas, Tennessee, Louisville, Nebraska, and Florida.
The 6'5", 308-pound offensive tackle is ranked by Rivals #27 prospect in the state of Tennessee and the #59 offensive tackle nationally.
Shepard was in attendance for Mississippi State's Top Dawg Camp on June 1st and is the fifth of a flurry of commitments following the event, following Luke Work, Holmes County (Miss.) four-star DT Terrance Hibbler, Winona (Miss.) LB Fred Clark, and Brookhaven (Miss.) ATH Xavier Gayten.
