Calvin catch against Miami where he laid out against his momentum. Was at the Clemson game in sc where he tore them up, but that Miami catch was amazing.

Dude was just unbelievable, wasn't he? He had the widest catch radius I've seen by a good margin.

Still the best catch I've ever seen at ANY level! The body control, the hand just unbelievable!

Yes he did, one the early true WRs and you're right, he'd plant that foot and change direction on a dime!

1. Favorite WR - (1) Drew Hill (2) C Johnson
2. Most Underrated WR - Jimmy Robinson
3. Favorite Single WR Play - Johnson's Game winner against Clemson

1. Kelly Campbell: Didn't have the size of Calvin or Thomas but was amazing; he could flat out fly!
2. Dez White. Was a STUD, but then came Campbell, Calvin, and Thomas...so people always forget just how good he was.
3. TIE: Kerry Watkin's game winning catch at Clemson 2000 or Kelly Campbell's one handed catch 4th qtr. at FSU 1999. Both AMAZING.
4. I choose to forget said performance!

 

[Boomergump]

1. Megatron
2. Kerry Watkins
3. Dez White over the middle and cut to the right sideline heading south for a TD to cap an amazing comeback against UVA orchestrated by L'il Joe.
4. Hurts too much to think about at the moment. I guess Clemson going something like 8 for 10 on deep balls against us at their place a few years ago.

Same list here. That spiderman catch was unbelievable. Every close up video doesn’t seem to do it justice either because they slow it down. That was a bullet from Reggie. I’ll go with Clemson a few years ago for #4 as well. It was sickening to watch but we could not stop a single deep ball that game.

 

[jeffgt14]

Is Kerry still playing in the CFL? I seem to recall him having a pretty great career there.

calvin
kerry watkings, jimmy robinson, harvey middleton, freddy smith
kerry watkins the catch 1, calvin the catch 2
