Young Lobos WR with upside after a modest redshirt-year start
Pope is a 6-foot, 171-pound receiver who flashed as a freshman, turning 9 catches into 90 yards and a touchdown after redshirting, which points to a player still early in his development but already finding ways to contribute.[1] The appeal is upside: he has game action, an early scoring play, and the profile of a lightweight, quick-strike slot/space receiver who could fit a system that values separation and timing more than pure bulk.[1] For a team, he looks like a developmental add rather than a finished product, with the main question being how much physical growth and consistency he can add next.[1]
