Star Players:
WR Cooper Kupp gave up the chance to leave early for the NFL to return to EWU for one last season with his teammates. Kupp is widely considere a surefire second day NFL draft pick. He owns a slew of receiving records, won the Walter Payton Award in 2015, and a versatile, shrewd receiver who is difficult for any defense to game plan against.
