Not accurate.  Amba Etta Tawo was the #3 WR at Maryland, part-time starter as a soph & junior, playing behind 4 star recruits.  He put up at least a couple of 100 yard games, including one against SU as a sophomore. Could get open, was a deep threat, had size and speed, and the knock was that he was inconsistent (drops).  The talent was apparent -- if only he could catch the ball consistently.    Once he arrived at SU, he was an obvious and immediate upgrade over what we had.

Ishmael was our best WR recruit in several years, MacDonald's prime recruit, and he was one of the few true frosh receivers to put up 30 or more receptions (Alex Lemon was the other).  He started as a soph, got better, and was primed to be our #1 receiver in 2016 -- until AET arrived.   Everyone could see he would be the prime target in 2017.

Lemon's first two years were a lot better than "didn't really do all that much" -- good right away, and improved each year.

Custis has been hampered by injuries.  Maybe he can still develop into a serviceable receiver, but there isn't much comparison to AET's career path or to Ishmael's or to Lemon's.
