He made that jump while Ford and Bucky were on the field w him in 2016
To be fair... the passing game as a whole was underwhelming at best for the entire Pry era - passing, route running, catching, run blocking... all of it was mid, and no group was good enough to elevate another group. It was just a non-stop vicious cycle.
ive listen to the podcasts when you make an appearance because 1) i want to support you and 2) i am typically unterested in what you have to say but I really find podcast hard to care about for football because I want x's and O's which without images are hard to do. So what do you, or others hear like about them, cause I just find the format to be the wrong one for me.
How much was that because Ford was on the otherside of the field from home those first 3 years? I think Aaron moorhead got Ford and Phillips ready to play really quick. He did a great job early on, and i think there was a ton of development their first couple of years that was hard to see in stats.
Cam phillips went from roughly a 40 catch 500 yard player into roughly 70/1000 by his senior year. Definitely stepped up big time and i remember that leap between his sophomore and junior years being pretty impressive -- especially in a bigger role in Fuente's first year
Kaleb Smith. Walk-on to #1 WR picked up by ND in the portal to be one of their top targets.
Willie Byrn was pretty good too.
That catch was sick. I never did get a good look at how he scored later though
I hear a guerrilla cinemetographer may have gotten some clips. He is an a shrewd negotiator, but I will try to incorporate his work. Sneaky bloke.
I'm struggling to think about who our best example of development from a WR is since boykin and coale graduated. A few names come to mind but the top WRs we had all came in and immediately played well (Ford, Phillips, Turner, Robinson, Lane, Jennings). Sure those guys improved with time but I don't recall a lot of big leaps in their play. And I really can't remember us taking a young WR and turning him into a great player, or even a good one. And i'm going back 15 years here. Marcus Davis had a solid senior season but still felt like he was a bit disappointing based on expectations. Someone provide a name that proves me wrong, please haha
Fully agree that we haven't had a WR break out or meaningfully improve for a 4 year cycle. Mines recruits 4 stars that stay buried on the roster, and then turns-over the top 4 through the portal every year. Seems like our best WR will be the transfer from Duke this year. Very poor development and lack of fundamentals in that room.
ah, my bad!
hahaha.

Sorry, I meant the whole spring game.
Chanz Wiggins looked the part had had a great catch on a ball behind him.
Fortunately he's a badass... he should probable be awarded his third purple heart.
No one recorded this thing to put on Youtube afterwards??
Wonder how much of that had to do with Holmon Wiggins being poached by Bama. Doubt they take him if he is a sub-par WR coach. He has, by far, had the most success of Fuente's assistants.
