[QUOTE="Eight, post: 2739803, member: 73370"] i agree with mt frog in that des did contribute in 2017, but i think a little perspective is needed on some of the numbers. no frog receiver in 2017 posted great numbers and that year to me is a mix of disappointment in the passing game, disappointment in the development of turpin, and a confusion of why more balls weren't thrown in reagors direction and why weren't they thrown that way sooner. one receiver showed true game changing ability that year and it was reagor. you had some solid guys, you had some guys who showed some flashes, but in terms of being other lever talent it was jalen. no receiver average more than 50 yards a game for a team that threw over 30 times a game. only one receiver average a touchdown every other game. fairly pedestrian numbers. white that year tied for the team lead in catches and i would also bet he was close to the lead in catches of 5 yards or less. he played, his part, did what he could do and that is something you want every recruit to do, but i would not call him a critical part of the offense. as far as the second half of the stanford game he made some big plays, did some good things, but when you ask who else could have returned that point? turpin, reagor, or snell all showed that had that type of potential with the ball in their hand in open field. again, i never understood the comparison of holiday and white in the first place other than the both played quarterback in high school.
