he wasn't one of those 2 at the top of the ACC in production, and he was supposed to be our #1 WR. he's not an explosive player (~12ypc over his 2 years here) and got worse as the season went on - 35ypg and <10ypc over the last five. even if we don't replace him in the portal (which we're obviously going to do) you really think Horton can't match that not so great production? am struggling to see how he's some great loss. wish him the best and hope he does well wherever he goes.
our WR need to be much more explosive next year. jacolby showed a lot of promise in that respect and brashard too when he wasn't making numbskull plays. ray ray and Washington have explosive potential. the recruits we have committed and Smith certainly do too. Colby Young proved over 2 years he wasn't consistently an explosive receiver. you wanna chalk all that up to corching, be my guest, but I'll trust what I see and the numbers dude puts up.
