Unless he returns kicks or some sleeper type transfer.. why spend on this dude versus developing your young talented WR’s and avoid losing them to the portal.

If a guy isn’t a difference maker not sure why a take like this is worth it

I guarantee they ain’t spending that much. This addition would not stop them from adding someone elite if that player presented themselves.… also he is better than RayRay and Toney is a freshman

 

[TheOriginalCane]

Run.

I was hoping for "catch", but it's a start.

Fair statement.

 

[htownkidd]

No need in even putting energy into it. Welcome kid and good luck.

It is Y4. There are no more excuses. Everyone associated with this program, players/coaches/staff, Mario is responsible for it all. Either win this weak *** conference or stfu.

To keep him away from the school up nawf!

To me, this doesn't necessarily solve our depth issues at WR. To me, adding yet another 5'10 slot receiver is a waste, especially when you kept Ray Ray and Carr. On top of that, you also added Marion as well. We needed another outside WR

 

[DemCanes10]

We need old guys...Until we added Daniels, the oldest WR we had was Ray Ray....think about that.

Experience means alot

 

[3FW]

Meh. Doubt he plays much. Good to have on a 105 man roster.
