Notes:
A 2½-year starter for the Tigers and never missed a game --- Named 1st Team All-SEC in 2011 --- One of the nation's most highly-touted and coveted recruits coming out of high school --- Did not post eye-popping statistics like most top wideout prospects but that was due in large part to
extremely inconsistent play from the quarterback position for the Bayou Bengals --- The type who might end up being better in the pros than college --- Talented prospect who isn't flashy but profiles as a potential #2 / Possession Receiver at the next level.
