Article: The Search for A Big Play Receiver

Not sure where the Josh Smith love on this board comes from. He was bad in 2013. Started 2014 off well but was injured and redshirted. In 2015 he averaged less than 2 catches a game catching 23 passes all season for 307 yards 2 TDs. The most yards he's had in a game is 58 in 2014 with Worley as QB. For some reason Dobbs doesn't trust him enough to target him more than a few times a game.

My best guess would be because he catches the ball when it is thrown his way.

He is our most reliable receiver.

Exactly, not big numbers but good hands and clutch plays
Right on.

Nobody on the team had big numbers. We don't throw the football.

Smith was our best receiver in 2014 before he got hurt and was our best receiver last year in my opinion.

Was for sure our most reliable WR in 2015. I think Pig was in 2014 and I think we really missed Pig last year. He prob would've lead our receiving core again had he been there through the year. As it was though, Smith was the most reliable and clutch last year.

Agreed, Josh Smith is good, but for a deep threat we need PW and/or JM to step up.

Josh Smith will take a couple to the house this year, I still think he's underestimated by many Vol fans and one of the fastest on the team

I'd like to see you catch a ball with an injured hand.
