Lavon Alston No Longer on Team

Not exactly surprising as we had several injuries to receivers and he didn't seem to be anywhere in the mix.


 
Going to be super inexperienced at WR next year with or without Alston. Only return 4 guys who saw snaps, and we play a lot of WRs throughout a game. And we'll only have 4 WRs on scholly that have been in Lincoln more than a year.

Sr - DPE, Rahn

Jr - Morgan, Reimers, Keyan Williams

So - nada

Fr - Spielman

recruits - KJJ, McQuity, Calvin??, Lewis??, ???

Super inexperienced? I dunno about that. DPE, Morgan, Reimers and Keyan Williams seems like a pretty good mix to me. And we're bound to have a couple other guys step up and challenge for PT.

WR is a position you can come in and play early. We'll be fine, especially if we can get Lewis.

I am not high on DPE as a receiver. He doesn't run great routes and he is inconsistent. He is a great talent, but not used very well in a traditional offense.

So after Morgan, you are counting on a former walk-on with limited career catches and a transfer from Fresno State who has never caught a pass at the collegiate level. I get optimism, but this is ridiculous. Also, there has shown a need to play 6-8 receivers in this offense, so depth is a huge issue.

Reimers. Really. Come on.

In a lot of offenses I might agree with you in regards to having freshmen be big contributors at WR, but the Riley/Langsdorf offense relies on the WR's making reads on the defense and being on the same page as the QB. That may be an issue next year. I also will doubt the freshmen's abilities to block downfield.

Williams is a bigger stretch than Reimers, but both are question marks.

Dude, go back and watch this season. He came up with some big plays for us.

Reimers has 3 catches for 49 yards for the season. Yes, the TD against Oregon was awesome, but are the other 2 catches "BIG PLAYS"? Even then, it would be three.

This is college football, not the NFL. Every year we lose some of our best players. And new guys step up to take their place. Sure we're losing a lot of talent in Westerkamp and Reilly. But WR isn't our thinnest position. We will be fine at WR next year.
