In his lone season with the Aggies, he was named first-team All-SEC as a receiver, returner and all-purpose player, was voted a consensus All-American and won the Paul Hornung Award recognizing the most versatile player in college football. In total, he ended his college career with 37 starts among 38 games as well as 185 catches, 2,218 receiving yards and 25 touchdowns. He also carried the ball 70 times for 431 yards and three scores, and returned 30 punts for an average of 16.
