Here's the breakdown for the % of completions by #1 WRs. Sanders isn't at the top of the list, and not really out there statistically.
I hope this formats right!
Hou 291 comp Avery 31%
SMU 250 Comp Sanders 30%
Utep 242 Comp Moturi27%
Rice 311 comp Dillard 25%
Tulane 184 comp Williams 25%
Tulsa 336 como Johnson 21%
With that said, I imagine that running a steady stream of 4WR sets will drop his percentage down to Tulsa/Rice numbers. The only big surpise to me was Tulane, which I expected to be closer to 30%, though I haven't looked into it at all.

Dillard's number is surprisingly low. I would think they look for him on every single snap.

I would imagine he is cause for other receivers to be wide open due to double or triple coverage. Of course he still makes catches against us with double or triple coverage.

remember Sanders was limited to 50% of the offensive plays on series during several games in the 2nd half of the season

if willis is too biased towards Sanders in JJ's view, he'll get pulled quickly. I think JJ has a history of replacing qb's if they don't buy into his system. not that he plays musical chairs but he won't stick long with a qb that's not on board

Maybe it's just me, but when did Hudman reappear on the scene?

he's been lurking in the shadows. Hey perhaps The Shadow should be his new Pledge Class nickname if he makes it back on the Team. It does have a certain ring to it.

Any lurkings of James Mapps? Someone said they saw him at the HP 4th of July Parade with the SMU float. Is that verified?

I was about 3 feet from a short black dude in a jersey that said Mapps on that float the whole parade. If anyone has a picture of him I can confirm if this was the same person.
