Like Salomon, this guy is an athlete. We have really missed true athleticism at the receiver position, and have only started to remedy the lack thereof in the last year or so. Still don't really have a stud receiver who is a true outside guy, it would be awesome if one of these two could develop into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that WR is one of our deepest positions where we could really see some names shine next year if we can get enough balls to go around and I don't expect Freshmen to get much playing time. Adams (our elder statesman), MVS, Bronson, McCants, Reed, Barr, Legree, and don't forget about Clerveaux who was supposedly wowing coaches in camp before losing his 2015 season to injury. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most in that list make up a ton of talented smaller, inside guys - Barr looked great especially - which is why we aren't recruiting that type of guy this year. MVS is promising but still very much an unknown quantity (same goes for Clerveaux). Bronson is the only other true outside guy and he hasn't really developed the consistency we've all hoped thus far. None of those guys have the speed + athleticism + size combo that these two do. Someone said on another board (I think), and it rang true - these two are the type of project receivers that often end up at UCF and then (sometimes) turn into NFL-type talent. Good to see us getting more of that type, even if they have their question marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked explosive a couple times he caught the ball. MVS and Clearveaux are both unknown, but are both 6'3" so should slot in as challengers outside.

He had a promising freshman year, regressed somewhat as a sophomore, and then left NCST after getting beat out for time and hasn't played in over a year. He's got a lot of promise, and reports have been good, but like the all transfers, there is a reason he is no longer at his prior school. I really hope he pans out, though. In any event, assuming you're right, these kids are c/o 2016, and when your best options on the outside have zero (Adams) and one (MVS) practical years of eligibility remaining after this one, you need to plan for the future.
