Still plenty of talent at the position.
College football’s watch list season continued today with the reveal of the Biletnikoff Award, which is given annually to the nation’s best pass catcher. This year, just one Mountain West player made this preseason cut.
That player is Fresno State’s Jalen Cropper, who was number one among returning Mountain West pass catchers last year with 85 catches, 899 yards, and 11 touchdowns. Among those receptions were 14 that went for 20 or more yards, and he also chipped in as a runner by carrying the ball 19 times for 76 yards and two scores.
Congratulations to Jalen Cropper @jcropper_5 for inclusion on the Biletnikoff Award Preseason Watch List! @FresnoStateFB @FSAthletics #OutstandingReceiver #NCFAA pic.twitter.com/JfhrRA99Lx
