Pair of WKU wide receivers named to Biletnikoff Award Watch List

Rising senior wide receivers Nicholas Norris and Taywan Taylor were named to the 2016 Biletnikoff Award Watch List on Wednesday by the Tallahassee Quarterback Club Foundation.

The Biletnikoff award is given annually to college football’s most outstanding receiver at any position.

Norris and Taylor are two of 53 players recognized on the Biletnikoff Award Watch List and give WKU two of Conference-USA’s seven representatives on the preseason watch list.

The Hilltoppers are one of only four non-power five teams to feature multiple players on the 53-man watch list. Taylor was a semifinalist for the honor last season.
