I see him on the depth chart. Saw the interview with him where it seems like he's expecting some PT. And I remember his freshman year where he looked like someone who'd contribute throughout his career. Any chance though that he actually plays this year? And would he be better off on the outside than in the slot? Never thought he was very shifty - even at Booker T. - Seems like his game was better to be on the outside to take advantage of the straight line speed - he said he's still top 2 with Dorsett when it comes to speed.

i'll be honest I'd love to see him help the team at WR this year since we could use the vertical speed, but just always expect an injury when it comes to him.

He's got some wiggle. Seent him play RB on scout team back in 2010.

I'd say he's #6 right now behind Hurns, Dorsett, Scott, Thompkins, and Lewis.
 
Kendall
Davon
Brandon

3 seniors who you keep hearing are "hungry."

If one of them breaks out this year, I'll be thrilled.

I think Manny wrote in the other thread about position grades that KT and DJ have taken advantage of injuries to the WR corps. I assume the injuries are more like "nicks", not serious ones.
 
He will be huge for UM. He is the deep threat that can stretch the field. I expect him to have a big year and would not be surprised if he lead the WR's in yards

LMFAO....Cityboy gets caught trolling here on the same day he gets called out on grassy for saying that Gabe Terry was not a good LB prospect. Someone send him a get well card...that is assuming the two cityboys are one in the same.

Well, he's not on the depth chart right now just because he is a Sr. If he maintains his current position on the chart he will get playing time at BC. The key will be whether not he is still getting PT when the outcome is still in doubt. If he is, he will continue to get PT.

We'll never know probably what kept him on the sidelines for most of his career except for special teams. Perhaps this staff has been able to help him to develop the confidence that will allow his abilities to flourish.

Injuries kept him on the bench... He was never healthy after his freshman year... Last year he went to db and still was hurt... The kid is good just need to eat his wheaties... On a serious note, I really like him... I just hope he is healthy...

Yes, I know there were injuries but there had to be more to it. Guys aren't usually moved to another position if they are just injured. Something else was going on.
