We'll leave out Green because we know what he is. Although I thought they would put him out wide more since we don't really have that guy. But nevertheless

Watkins is obviously #1, sure handed, quick.

Who's going to step up and be that #2 sure thing you can count on? Leavitts sideline throws were all short, so maybe tonight was r a good representation. But we struggle with high pointing and drops.

Is wilson the best bet? Did philip wright iii earn more early playing time?

Watkins and Wright was incredible tonight. I feel like at least 5-6 receivers will get consistent playing time. Wilson, Brown, and Harris gotta step up but I think they will with more reps

I would like to see Leavitt roll out more passing so the ball doesn’t keep getting tipped. That will help him with the receivers.

Phillip Wright needs to play more

Jackson Harris is going to have much better games.

Wilson can be special with the ball in his hand.

I was surprised we didn't see more jayce brown.

They might not have a chase, nabers guy this yr. This Clemson defense was bad.

Feel like the other guys started to find their feel for the game in the second half. Watkins and Wright def had the wow factor. But Wilson and brown I liked what I saw in the second half. Harris will get better too. First game excitement for a guy who played for little Hawaii.

Think 3 is in store for some big games this season. Man he reminds me of OBJ out there running around.

Harris had a big catch in the second half that flashed his talent

WR isn't usually a position you rotate 6 guys. A) it's unnecessary unless they are just really different types of players, which ours aren't. B) they don't get gassed like RB or DT.

I think tonight Lane was seeing who would step up. He knows what Green and Watkins are. Need 1 more guy you can count on when it's 3 and 8

Honesly Phillip wright. He has a different explosive gear and real ball skills. Wilson can also get open and smooth off the line

Wright has amazing field speed from what I saw and made the best catch of the night. He will be a factor. Watkins constantly gets open and may be option #1. #3 is also really fast and gets open a lot and can be used in a lot of ways. I expect Brown to emerge as things move forward as well.

Did Elzy get a lot of run after the first series? Hard catch but guess he could have had it

It was pretty concerning how no one besides Watkins could create separation. I don’t think anyone stuck out in a positive way besides Watkins and Wright.

Wilson had a nice catch and run on a drag but had drops that were unseemly. Drops are one thing — that can generally get fixed with concentration and focus — being unable to get separation in a game where you absolutely had your way with the other team is another.

We’ll see how Tech goes and if anyone finds a groove.

Wright III showed he definitely needs more field time.
