A four-year starter and team captain for the Mountaineers --- 1st Team FCS All-American in 2010 and 2011 --- Named 1st Team All-Southern Conference in 2010 and 2011 --- Also a standout basketball player in high school and did not play prep football until senior year --- Finished as FCS active leader in career receiving yards --- ASU's all-time leader in receptions, receiving yards and touchdown receptions --- Invited to 2012 Senior Bowl and did not look out of place during the week --- A small school gem with all of the physical tools to be a starting wideout at the next level but is raw and will require development and patience.
