College Football 2025: The Wide Receivers Ready to Ignite a New Era of Lightning-Speed Showdowns

Enter Ross, who just may headline a mostly new receivers’ group after the Nittany Lions happily waved goodbye to several of their former receivers via the transfer portal.

Interestingly, Ross was not a superstar data-wise. His 59.8% burn rate was right around the Sun Belt average, and once he had the ball in his hands, he was easier to tackle than Rucker and some of the SBC’s other elite receivers (Ross’ 0.118 missed or broken tackles per touch won’t thrill anyone).

But Ross’ excellence was in handling volume: He had 127 targets, three more than Rucker and the most in the conference. And he didn’t merely feast on the dregs of his league: In Troy’s lone power conference matchup of the season against Iowa and its elite defense, he went for five catches, 142 yards, and scores of 63 and 62 yards, adding in a 77-yard punt return touchdown.
