For a team with so much hype coming into the season, there’s an awful lot of production that needs to be replaced offensively. That includes both a 1000-yard rusher and a 1000-yard receiver. Olamide Zaccheaus is just the third UVA WR to break the 1000 yard mark. Ever. He’s also the all-time leader in receptions, with almost 20% more catches than anybody else. It’s insane how productive he was over the past two years.
It’ll be a RB by committee to replace Jordan Ellis’s production. That’s tougher to do with WRs. Zaccheaus was always open, and Bryce Perkins knew that.
