Receiving Corps......

[newmexicuse]

So many extremely well deserved kudos to Kyle, but he could not have done it without our excellent receiving corps.

Top to bottom this might be the best group that we have ever had here. Meeks, Pena, and Gadson all with 69 or more catches. Eights guys with at least one catch of 35+ yards.

Very few drops, so many won jump balls, just overall excellence.

And that is not to mention Allen as a fabulous outlet.

Gill, Hatcher, and JRS all had their moments as well, and should (fingers crossed) be coming back too.

And then we get to the quality freshmen that were brought in last year (Hail, Hornsby and Ross) and have had a full season of strength training.

Oh...and then...if Zeed comes back...boy that is some quality talent for 2025.

Do we think Peña is definitely back? He might declare for NFL or want to transfer if he doesn’t like the QB we bring in. Pretty sure he’s been in college 4 years

He wont transfer. It would be 100 percent sure to get paid if he stayed. Brown and him are tight. He wont leave.

Pena is Mr. Clutch. Meeks has become one of my favorite players. He comes down with tough catches in traffic. Our receivers didn’t drop balls. They were amazing. Our receivers coach is big time.

I also saw him post a story today with his girlfriend who goes to SU, that stuff always matters

Ross Douglas is also an excellent WR coach-We are very lucky to have him.

To put how wild the season was in context, Allen's 61 receptions would have tied him with Gadsden for 10th on the all-time season receptions list... except Pena, Meeks, and Gadsden all caught more than that and bumped the 61 right off the receptions list.

Being the #1 passing offense in all of college football. If you think back over the years, it just doesn’t seem real. But it’s real and it’s spectacular.

Absolutely. All of them improved this year and using the middle of the field and the RB's, just so much fun to watch.

Will be interesting to see who comes back. Pena and LeQuint Allen always kept drives alive and may not come back. A guy that I haven't heard a lot about is Ja'Meer Thomas. Could he fill Pena's slot roll?

 

[SmilinBob]

I know we talk a lot about their talent regarding catching the ball but I wonder which WR graded the highest blocking?

Receivers were excellent all year and Allen still had better hands than of them
