Nice to see a fellow insomniac hitting Google....I can't decide if I want to try and find some details on this kid or get some sleep

How do we know he's a good receiver if his team didn't use him much?

I assume we asked him...

He caught two passes for 46 yards, ran 3 times for 89 and two scores... this team put up some serious numbers, too.

though I don't know how reliable that stat page might be, here's a story that has him catching a TD pass...

And I guess one of the rushing TD's was a 61 yard option reverse... strange numbers indeed, but hopefully we've found a gem!!!

6'-4", 183 lbs....maybe he'll be a bigger version of Charles Sharon.

Holy cow that's tall!

If he can back it up with speed...

It looks like this kid will fit in well with our offense. He sounds like the type of kid who can go over someone to get a ball in the corner of the endzone and may be an effective downfield blocker coming from a team that is nearly all run. (This kid may be a real steal not having the chance to showcase his talent in a HS passing offense)

Let's hope he is a diamond in the rough and got overlooked by the big schools because they didn't throw it that much. But a 6'4" WR at least sounds good. Kinda like a 300 lb def tackle.

If there's anything that I put the faith in our coaching staff for its scouting, and then recruiting, offensive skill players. This guy may not have had a chance in HS, but I'm left with a sneakins suspicion that he'll end up being a stud and catching a lot of balls for BG

Maybe they'll move him to TE.

And he'll start against Michigan.
