What a pleasure  to watch...sorry this Covid-19 season kept so many fans from watching him in person.  I have been watching good receivers since the days of Ron Shanklin, who was another great one to watch, but Mr. Darden is not only talented but has shown perseverance and mental toughness to utilize his talents to max.

Wonderful story and here's hoping he gets a chance in the NFL to show his stuff! 

Need next man up to become an elite receiver...GMG!

Im confident he'll be playing on Sundays. I also think he breaks our draft drought. Next man up #9 Mr. Simpson. He showed a few flashes this season.

Shorter will be back next season as well!

Darden is a human highlight reel.  Great fun watching him play and looking forward to seeing him play at the next level.

Not to take anything away from his performance against UTEP, but it looks like he may have received some help from the refs on that 4th TD catch.  He went out of bounds around the defender before coming back on the field to catch the pass. One ref dropped his hat, but I guess they decided the defender forced him out.  I'm not so sure....play starts at the 4:58 mark, so decide for yourself.  We've been the victim of so many bad calls over the years, I have no problem with one going our way for a change.

Shorter has to stay healthy,  I know this year he was rolled on but pretty sure he was hurt his freshman yr too. Gotta stay on the field,  luckily he didn't lose a year of eligibility this year so still have him for 3 years
