Emerging Leaders

NOTE: The Antonio Gibson-Kedarian Jones feature first appeared in the Memphis Football GameDay program Oct. 19 when the Tigers hosted Tulane.

Halfway through the 2019 University of Memphis season, veteran Damonte Coxie is, as the numbers reveal, where many expected him to be at this point.

The junior receiver leads the team in receptions, yards and average yards per game. A year ago, as a sophomore, he became only the third player in school history to produce a 1,000-yard receiving season, joining a prestigious group that counts Isaac Bruce and Anthony Miller.
