Marquis McCants brings rookie-speed upside and a local spark to Bethune-Cookman
McCants is a compact, quick-twitch receiver from Daytona Beach whose value starts with easy acceleration and return-game juice; in Bethune-Cookman’s 2026 opener, he contributed on special teams and was listed on the active roster as a redshirt sophomore, showing he’s in the mix for a bigger role[7][10][14]. At 5-foot-9 and 165 pounds, he’s built more for separation and burst than jump-ball heroics, so he fits best in an offense that wants space, tempo, and after-catch creativity[1][11].
