Chris Potter brings freshman speed and upside to Southern Illinois’ receiver room
Chris Potter is a 5-foot-11, 175-pound freshman wideout from Kirkwood, Missouri, with a proven high school resume: 84 catches, 1,460 yards and nine touchdowns, plus all-conference honors and track speed that shows up on tape and in his background. Southern Illinois lists him as a WR, but there are no college stats available yet, so the intrigue is all about projection, not production. The appeal is his athletic pop, coachability, and multi-sport burst; the question is whether he can turn that into immediate FCS separation and special-teams value.
