Comments
Wide Receiver from Belle Glade...four-year letterman and three-year starter...played in a four rotating receiver system during his time at FSU...could catch the short pass but his skill was as the long threat...was a threat to go all-the-way after a catch...a very good blocker...1st Team All-South Independent in 1984 and 2nd Team in 1982...earned All-American Honorable Mention from the Associated Press and Football News in 1984...had nine 100-yard receiving games...in the top 25 seasonal record books for Reception Yards (20th-832 in 1984), Touchdowns (14th-9 in 1984)...in the top 25 career lists for Scoring (24th-136 points), Receptions (18th-107), Yards (10th-2100), Touchdowns (7th-21)...his career 19.6 yards per catch average is second all-time to Barry Smith...played 10 years in the NFL with the Raiders, Falcons, Colts and Rams.
