Diminutive receiver has overcome a spate of injuries early in his career to emerge as a regular member of the Mountaineers’ receivers rotation ... one of the team’s fastest players ... boasts a penchant for the acrobatic catch ... is slated to once again be the Mountaineers’ primary punt returner ... also penciled in as the backup to Matt Cline at the M receiver position, but could continue to see role expand based on flashes of brilliance displayed a year ago.

2008 : Played in all 14 games as a member of the Mountaineers’ rotation of wide receivers and the squad’s primary punt returner for much of the season ... started four games — the first two games of the year (at LSU, vs. Jacksonville) as well as tilts against Chattanooga and Elon ... caught 10 passes for 120 yards on the season ... his catches came in bunches, highlighted by a stretch of seven receptions in three games versus The Citadel, Samford and Georgia Southern that was capped by an acrobatic catch in the corner of the end zone for ASU’s first score of the day in the 37-36 win at GSU ... also returned a team-high 29 punts for an average of 6.3 yards per return ... had a season-best 28-yard return in the first-round playoff win over South Carolina State.

2007 : Saw action in one game, a 79-35 win over archrival Western Carolina ... did not record any statistics.

2006 : Redshirted.
