Potential Head Coaches

Nsimba Webster wasn't tall, but he was flanked by two very good receivers in Andrew Boston and Limu-Jones. Those dudes were talented and 6'3" and 6'5". Forcing teams to match up with them down the field was a large part of the reason Webster could make the plays he'd make underneath.

I mean, Brandon Kaufman wasn't that fast either. Yet he's probably among the 5 or so best receivers in Eastern history. Why? Because he could outjump anyone and had velcro hands. Plus, he was the definition of play-maker. When a game was tight, you could always throw to him and count on him making the play.

Plus, let's be straight, the smaller guys we'll have next year aren't exactly Shaq Hill or Nsimba Webster.

Webster is in the NFL. Scouts would know if he had talent on this own or if it was the guys surrounding him.

Like I said too, Limo Jones was SOOO slow, he played TE at first but didn't really have the size just the height. Shit a LB could cover him. Any team could have put their fastest CB on Nsimba. Kupp wasn't fast either or that super tall at 6'2" he just ran really good routes and had really good fundamentals. Chism is 5'10" and 2nd best receiver in Eastern history.

I'm just saying height isn't the end all, best stat for WRs. Shit if it was we'd have basketball players out there.

I'm fine with smaller speedsters. Yall forget Nsimba Webster. Wortham is decent lined up at receiver. Limo-Jones was sooo slow, only advantage he had was being so tall.

Nsimba Webster, yes, as a slot receiver. But he still played in a receiving corps that had taller guys.

Big receivers was a trademark of the Baldwin years but since then we’ve gotten smaller and smaller, and I can’t underdtand why. Size matters, especially in the red zone where we struggle.

Liko-Jones was slow but he absolutely dominated people with his size. Remember that he was originally a TE.
 
Eh, we'll be fine. The best trio of receivers EWU had Kupp, Bourne and Hill, Kupp was the tallest at 6'2"

Plenty of 6'+ receivers on the roster. Its nice to have but so many other things that are more important.
