Top 5 receivers....

Fantastic news.

He would provide some depth. Hopefully he got over his case of the drops from last year. I remember he played a nice game against Iowa and a not-so-nice game against KU.

Anytime you can get your 3rd best receiver back on the field (and 2nd best based on returning guys) is a good day for ISU.

A-Rob's long TD catch saturday. The 4th or 5th receiver isn't necessarily the 4th or 5th read on a given play. That's why we've had so many guys catching balls. Also, in a quick passing game, the point (sometimes) is that you don't go to through the reads, as in order to get rid of it quickly, you can't cycle through 5 guys. The problem for AA is that he hasn't recognized it enough when the primary read isn't open. That's when you have to check down.

I hear you, but you nailed the problem. He never makes it past the first option.

How many catches does ARob have on the year? You'd think he have a helluva lot more dumpoffs that it seems like he's getting.
