The "flip the roster project" is going swimmingly! Dude had FOUR STARS next to his name as a recruit way back in 2020. Surely this will be the year he lives up to the hype!
Javian Hester - 5 year WR with 583 career yards - transfers in
- Thread starter ganner918
- Start date
He was under Hamden at Missouri, along with Maclin and the WR coach, so hopefully those relationships will bring positive results.
Hope isn't a plan. If a football player hasn't developed by the time he is a redshirt junior, it isn't gonna happen. This is a complete waste of a scholarship.
Watch what you say around here everything is going to be alright according to a few. The ones transferring out sucked anyway we will get all those STUDS transferring in to take their place. The reality of the situation is we're going to get Joker type replacement players. I sure hope I'm wrong but this ship is sinking faster than the titanic!
Imo he is a depth piece which im fine with as long as we didn't pay much. We have decent enough returning talent at wr especially if we're shifting to a more physical approach as it seems we are.
I wish we could let the process play out before we criticize and constantly belittle our coaches. Hester is not going to be our go to WR, and is a good depth piece with experience and size. Hoping we grab a couple guys better than him to start
Brings some depth and maturity to the WR room. Former 4 star who out of HS tested as follows:
4.65 second 40-yard dash
4.13 second shuttle
36.5 inch vertical
Limited production early in his career due to injuries. Last season he caught 14 passes for 315 yards (22.5 yards per catch) and 1 TD.
Looks to be a candidate to be the X Receiver and to be a Red Zone threat (if we ever get down there) at 6’4’ 202 lbs.
Heisman candidate? No!
Role player on a team that needs role players? Should be!

They just contacted a LB from ball state with 6 career tackles.
I agree. So far I have actually liked what we have been picking up. Hopefully during the rebuild they can bring back a good culture.
If another SEC team had signed J.J., the headline would read "Vanderbilt picks up former 4 - Star Receiver". When UK picks up the same the headline is more like "Kentucky adds WR depth".
Sounds like he has battled injuries for most of his career. But yeah, there should be more production there.
He has the size that Stoops loves for DBs. I wonder if we are bringing him in to be a possession receiver, special teams contributor, or to try out defense?
With metrics like those I hope he can catch because he won't be burning any DBs on the field.
The corner fade is a grand idea. I only hope one of our QBs can actually throw that pass.
I’ll never criticize any player that WANTS to be here. You can go cheer on Key at Mississippi and Brown at LSU or even Dingle at the Cocks. I’ll cheer for the Blue Team.
