A breakout candidate? ‘Impeccable’ work ethic bodes well for Boise State receiver Evans

Octavius Evans was good enough as a true freshman to see time on the field in all 14 of Boise State’s football games last season.

Based on his diligence alone, a full-time starting role could be on the horizon for the sophomore receiver in 2018.

“He’s just everything a coach loves as a player,” Boise State receivers coach Eric Kiesau said. “The No. 1 thing that makes Octavius different than anybody else is his work ethic. He’s internally driven to do great things with his life.”

In his first season as a Bronco, the 6-foot-1, 199-pounder caught 15 passes for 131 yards and two touchdowns.
