Miami depth at wideout excites Dysert
There might have been better wide receivers at Miami University than those who will haul in the passes of Zac Dysert this fall, perhaps better 1-2 tandems at wideout.
Michael Larkin and Martin Nance, for instance, or Nance and Ryne Robinson. Some of the more mature fans might remember Doc Ulrich and Hal Paul from coach George Blackburn’s 1948 Redskins.
But it’s unlikely that any Miami squad has had more quality depth at wide receiver. Armond Robinson had 67 catches for 788 yards a year ago and earned all-Mid-American Conference recognition. Jamal Rogers is back from a 54-catch season. Chris Givens has recovered from an injury and is looking better than he did in 2007, when he had seven TD catches.
And those receivers, along with Andrew Cruse and Luke Swift, two sophomores with tons of potential, are working hard just to keep up with the two transfers, DeMarco Paine and Nick Harwell.
Dysert smiled at the thought of all that talent.
“It makes everything a lot easier for me,” Dysert said of the receiver depth. “Just in case the defense double teams somebody, it doesn’t really matter. We’ll just go to two other guys. Any other guy is someone you can go to. Everybody’s going to be reliable.”
Dysert, whose 247 completions during his redshirt freshman year ranks fifth on Miami’s single-season list, said he feels “great right now. I have a better grasp of the offense this year and I feel a lot more comfortable back there.”
