We will get those kids eventually. But before we can do that, we have to bring in the ones who will develop. For now though, I will play devil's advocate. Almost none of our greatest receivers made huge impacts when stepping onto campus... and we have had some good ones. Marvin Harrison (#1 in career receiving yards, caught two balls as a frosh), Rob Moore (#3, caught 9 balls as a frosh), Art Monk (#8, 2 receptions), Kevin Johnson (#9, 6 receptions as a soph), and Mike Siano (#10, 20 receptions, also as a soph). Even Scott Schwedes, Mike Williams, and Quinton Spotwood, all of whom blew by the others when it comes to freshman production, caught only 21, 24 and 17 passes, respectively. And Sales, everyone's favorite misfit, only caught 14.

We have Kobena successfully showing us legit speed in the return game. Jarrod West should at least get to double digit receptions, while possibly reaching the Schwedes, Williams, and Spotwood level. And even though Dorian isn't young in age, he is in experience, and seems to take another step in his development every couple games or so. Hopefully he can help keep the pressure off the kids for one more year by replacing Chew as Lemon's counterpart on the outside (which is good, given how far he would have come, and bad, because Chew has been rather pedestrian since his groin injury of last year and is just not looking that hard to replace).
