Courtland Sutton stayed with SMU first during a coaching change, and again when he could have been an NFL Draft selection. With a degree on the horizon, “the best receiver in college football” looks to take the Mustangs to an American Athletic Conference championship.

Courtland Sutton had his future mapped out for him at the end of last season.
SMU’s 6-4, 218-pound redshirt junior wide receiver was coming off a first team all-conference season in which he caught 78 passes for 1,246 yards and 10 touchdowns and blew by the Mustangs’ school record for single game receiving yards with 252 yards and a career-high 13 receptions against USF.
