JACKSON, Mississippi - Rico Richardson may get most of the attention of opposing coaches, but Jackson State offensive coordinator Derrick McCall knows there's more to the Tigers receiving corps than the senior burner. Much more.
E.J. Drewery, at 6-foot-6, is hard to miss, much less bring down, and the recent addition of former Ole Miss receiver Tobias Singleton gives McCall what he feels to be his deepest - and fastest - group yet.
"We've had guys we've felt comfortable with on the opposite side (of Richardson), but I've never had guys with this caliber of speed on the field at the same time. "I'm very excited about our receiving corps," McCall said. "It's probably the highlight of our offense."
A year ago, JSU led the SWAC in scoring offense (35.8 points per game), total offense (490.9 yards per game) and pass offense (348.1). And despite graduating some key pieces to that success - namely quarterback Casey Therriault and receiver/tight end Renty Rollins - McCall believes this year's group of receivers may be even better.
