That was one thing I was thinking of when I put the total team passing yards to give an idea of how productive the top receiver was relative to the team.
Percentage wise, Reed had 48.6% of 2001 team yardage and Davis had 47.4% in 1986. Carson had 46.4% in 1977.
Like you said, there are many factors including
Offensive coordinator/scheme
run/pass play calls ratio
effectiveness of QB
offensive line giving QB time to throw
having other great receivers on team (i.e. Landry/OBJ, Chase/Jefferson, Nabers/Thomas)

Clayton is the one who brought the toughness and relentless blocking aspect of the WR game that we enjoy at lsu. He had bad intentions for the opponent and it didn’t matter if he was getting the ball or covering kickoffs and punts.

I don’t think the bowl game yardage was included in the 80’s. I’m not sure about 2001. If that was the case, Davis might be a better candidate for the information I presented. Carlos Carson was unreal too. He could blaze.
