No it won't. It's a record that speaks to ones longevity on the field along with production.

Josh Reed had a total of 134 yards receiving in his freshman year. Malik Nabers had 417.

What does that matter? For one Josh wasn't even a fulltime WR as a freshman in 99.

And two, he still went on to put up record-setting numbers the next 2 years that have him atop LSU's career marks.

Again, love Malik. Been saying he's the best WR in CFB this year for a while LINK. But don't sell Josh short.

Josh Reed was a converted RB so it took his freshman year to figure it out. There was nobody better after the catch because of his RB background. I'll say Nabors was as good but better. Meh.

I don’t really understand your point as it relates to the other poster’s comment about bowl stats. Josh Reed had an additional 335 receiving yards that weren’t included in his record because they didn’t count bowls in career stats at the time.

If they counted Reed’s bowl stats (as they do today) his record would have been 3,336 yards instead of 3,001.
