    I almost agree that he'd be better as a "utility back" in college, but his frame is too small to take him to the pros in that position. It's WR or bust for him (in the NFL).

    All of those hits he takes are going to take a toll on that small body of his over time. He should really add about 15 pounds of lean muscle, it may affect his speed just a little, but slot receiver would be a good spot for him if he can watch the ball all the way to his hands and tuck it before running. I really hope for sake and for the team that his final two years of eligibility are not wasted.

    He has shown signs of what we all thought he would do from day one. I really hope we get to see more of it.
