He definitely slipped on a potential TD versus Georgia.

It takes him like ~5 yards to get his feet and then he’s really hard to bring down when he hits his stride. But for those initial 5 yards, it feels like he goes down at any contact (even with blades of grass…). His balance is super funky.

I see we are doing this thing where we mind erase everything before MSU game.  Wingo and Manning both played their part in our sputtering offense.  Let’s hope they continue to gel and take it to a higher level next year.

I don't think Wingo had at least 558 yards in drops.

When you account for drops that led directly to punts there were a lot of potential yards (and points) lost on drives that ended in addition to the actual lost yards from those specific plays. Obviously impossible to say just how many though. 

That said, talk of letting Wingo walk is fucking stupid. I’m going to guess most of the same people saying that also wanted Worthy gone after his Sophomore year

Let's not compare Wingo and Worthy.  No one wanted Worthy gone bc of his play.  It was his social media BS and constant threat of transferring that had fans sour on him.  

Wingo is all potential and extremely inconsistent.   He has dropped too many passes in crucial games in crucial moments.  He is soft fighting DBs and rarely fights for the ball making contested catches.  His route running is poor.  He is fast, that is is elite trait.  I'm not saying I want Wingo gone but I would not be happy if he's our WR1 going into next year.  We need consistency and a guy that we can turn to when the game is on the line.  AD Mitchell made game winning plays.  Golden made game winning plays.  If it's 4th and 15, how confident are you that Wingo makes the play?  Given that next year is the year before we rebuild again in 2027 on the O-line, QB, and defense, we need guys at WR, RB, and TE that can help us win a title.

Agree although Wingo could still become that guy. He really only has one year of starting under his belt and missed a lot of the offseason.

His thread title on the football board was titled “Big Drop Zay” at a certain point. That thread is full of people saying he couldn’t catch and was too lazy and uncoordinated to track deep balls.

this is a good point. 

Maybe he's a late bloomer and with a full year and off-season under his belt (hopefully he goes through a full off-season with that surgery he is scheduled to have) he can be what we all think.

Yes, I remember Worthy having drops, he also played with a broken hand.  Even then, he did not have anywhere near the drops Wingo had.  Comparing them is dumb.  Worthy hit damn near 1000 yards with freshman year, 800 his soph year, and had a solid Jr year with all the talent on that team (AD, and JWhit).  He made big plays in big games against Bama, ou, etc.  He's also been a starter on a playoff team his 1st and 2nd year in the NFL.  Wingo is not that.  The aggy game is the 1st time I remember Wingo making a big time play against a top 10 opponent?  I'd prefer not to put all our eggs in his basket and get a proven WR in the portal.  I also want to clarify, I want Wingo on the team, but not as WR 1.    DM Jr can get fucked in the portal.  Dude had 1 Td until the Arkansas game.
