Has caught at least one pass in every game Georgia State has played (22 straight) ... Four 100-yard games in two seasons ... Tall and lanky with excellent leaping ability ... Very good blocker ...

Also recovered two Campbell on-sides kicks in the fourth quarter to help seal the victory ... Added a 22-yard TD catch vs. St. Francis ... Named to the 2011 CFPA Wide Receiver Preseason Watch List.

2010: The leading receiver and Offensive MVP for Georgia State's inaugural team ... GSU's leading receiver with 54 receptions for 649 yards and five TD ... Averaged 4.9 catches and 59.0 yards per game ... Caught at least one pass in every game ... Voted the team's Outstanding Wide Receiver and Most Valuable Player on Offense by his teammates.

Became the Panthers' first-ever 100-yard receiver with eight catches for 101 yards in win over Morehead State ... Bettered that with five catches for 103 yards against N.C. Central, including a 24-yard touchdown catch that put GSU ahead with 5:36 to play. Also had a 19-yard catch for a third-down conversion on the scoring drive.

Season-high 11 catches for 102 yards against Old Dominion ... Had five receptions for 82 yards against South Alabama, including a 47-yard scoring play that is his longest reception of the year ... Caught an eight-yard touchdown pass from Drew Little in the fourth quarter of GSU's 24-21 win at Campbell. Also had a spectacular, one-handed grab on that drive.

Had seven catches for 78 yards in overtime loss to fourth-ranked Jacksonville State. Set up the tying touchdown late in regulation with a 16-yard reception down to the one-yard line ... Caught a 39-yard TD pass from running back Rosevelt Watson vs. Lambuth ... Had receptions of 15 and 13 yards in the inaugural game versus Shorter ... Had six catches for 61 yards in win over Lamar. Playing defense, he contributed a key pass breakup in the end zone on Lamar's final play.

HIGH SCHOOL: Honorable mention all-state in Class 6-A, Florida's largest classification ... All-county and all-Central Florida ... Had 35 receptions for 660 yards and seven touchdowns as a senior, following 31 receptions for 560 yards and six scores as a junior ... Helped Boone High School to an 11-3 record as a senior, following a 14-1 mark in 2007, when the school's only loss was to nationally-ranked Miami Northwestern in the state title game ...
