Looks like he's doing pretty darn good. I"m glad we got Bennet though.

That is very impressive. Can't fault the guy for going to Penn State. Hope he does well.

Those are Chris Harper like High School stats. Yet he obviously has talent. Must have been a great camp player to have ever been noticed by colleges and recruiting services.

I would love to hear the story behind his High School career.

Speaking of Chris Harper, looks like he lost his starting spot on K State.

"So when Snyder went back to the Banks-type receiver and moved Thompson into the starting lineup instead of Harper, a Wichita native, it showed how well Thompson played during camp."

Sounds like he may not even be as much of a wide receiver as he thought he was...Next season we will hear he has switched to CB to utilize his speed and talents :P

He seems like he hasn't improved much since his FR season. You would think that a third year SO with his athletic ability would at least be able to crack the starting line-up at a place like Kansas State.

The funny thing is, CH appeared to be on his way to being a stud WR at Oregon.

Must be something in the water... Or the coaching.

Would have been nice to get him but I think we got some good RBs that will help us down the road. Even if he had come here, I don't know how much of a difference he would have made since the majority of the carries would still be to James and Barner.

Also had he come here there is probably a very good possibility that Lache would not have come here even though they are different style backs. So it was one or the other, and although it is taking Lache time to learn the playbook from all accounts he is looking good otherwise. Lache continues the Texas pipeline whereas there would probably have been no opening of a pipeline had Lattimore come here so it will probably end up better getting Lache over Lattimore, besides it sounds like we got a nice powerback in Williams.

Bennet is faster and has a very accurate arm.
