Can't wait to see him and Cain on the field!! Will just add to the amazing players we have had from FL. Not only help on the friend but helps recruiting future playmakers from Florida. Just building a NFL factory for FL skill players. #Allin

Hard to know what to expect as a true freshman in a deep receiving corps

But he sure can be explosive returning kicks from the jump and it's been awhile since we've had this type of threat in the return game

I love this guy's film and think he's going to be a monster but are we maybe expecting too much for a kid who's gonna be a true freshman playing at 5'9" 176? That's really, really small. It'd be one thing if he had enrolled early and got a spring in and workouts but coming in this late and that small? I hope he has an all American season but that size just kind of concerns me

That's BS Tiger13...Artavis Scott was 5'10" and 180

Ray Ray is a phenom just like Tay and will be an impact player from the 1st time he steps on the field.

To put it in prospective, their is an NFL WR that is listed at 5'9" 185lbs and was the scariest thing you ever seen as a DB. He blew the doors off when he played for the Panthers. His name was Steve Smith. Ever heard of him? If he was 5'8" 176 and a D-lineman, then your reaction is valid. The 2-man and 5-man are "mismatch" positions. If he is as fast as everyone says, I would hate to be the LB or FS that has to come up and play Ray-squared!

He isn't huge but he is an absolute beast solid as a rock. I highly doubt ray ray looks anything physically compared to AS once he gets in campus and in that weight room things just might change.

Think Deanthony Thomas

Thomas was under 170 when stepped on the for Oregon. But that little ####### was one of the most electrifying players I've ever seen. I think he is the fastest player I've ever seen in pads. Not everyone has to be 6'4 230 at WR or 6'1 225 at RB to make an impact. Ray-Ray is that guy that you just can't get a solid hit on like Warrick Dunn or Knowshawn Moreno (at UGA). BTW, what did Bellamy weigh when he got to Clemson? Didn't stop him on that 75 yard TD he had the very first ti.e he touched the ball in college.

Hopper is only 175lb's and gets plenty of snaps

His size is not an issue especially when no one on the D can even touch him. Kid is going to be explosive. Cain is the one with good size and those two are going to be a heck of a duo. Combine that with Scott and Williams down field ability and DW should have a field day slinging the ball this season.

Do not forget about Peake that boy is finally healthy and can flat out play. If I recall he was recruited higher than Sammy just finally got healthy again. Not sayin he is Sammy or better btw. Nobody can ever be Sammy Watkins. Peake has the ability to be great and have a great year. WE TOO DEEP so many options for DW.

Yes hopefully Peake shines this season as well

With all the injuries he has had to endure he is well deserving of having a healthy successful season. Hopefully if he is healthy he is not mentally gun shy from such bad luck and can go out and play without worrying about re-injuring him self.

Ray Ray will most likely be used on special teams his freshman year. He will be a home run threat every time he touches the ball. He might save us in games on special teams if the offense can't move the ball.

If the offense can't move the ball this year we'll have much bigger problems than special teams. I see what you're saying, but lets be realistic. The offense should move the ball EVERY possession. GO TIGERS!!!!!

It sounds like RR is just as talented as Tay Scott from everything I've heard/read, so shouldn't we expect to see him a lot on the O instead of just special team KO's? If he's that good, and I think he is, then I expect to see him in a lot of situations by mid-season (sooner if he had enrolled earlier).

I can honestly say that Sammy was the last time I got this excited about an incoming freshman, but I'm trying to not let my cart get to market before my horse. It'll show pretty quick if he's as talented as advertised. Just go do your thing, Ray Ray. Either way, I'm still happy he's a Tiger. I know a certain receiver that better up his game in a hurry...

Double jet sweep with a reverse option With Tay on one side and RR on the other with DW at QB that could fake it and run. No defense can stop that if DW makes the right read even if they know the play is coming. The plays they can draw up are RIDICULOUS.

I hope he doesn't think he's that much better than the receiver's already on the roster. Future is bright but maybe needs to calm down a bit...
