Carson Neu brings rare size and a blue-collar backstory to Ball State’s WR room
Neu is a 6-foot-5, 216-pound freshman wide receiver who arrives at Ball State as a 22-year-old walk-on after two years in the Army National Guard, giving him a maturity and toughness edge that coaches tend to value. He logged 106 yards, 21 tackles, and an interception as a senior at Delta HS, suggesting a competitive, multi-phase athlete rather than a one-dimensional receiver. He is not a proven college producer yet, but his size, physicality, and grind-it-out background make him an intriguing developmental fit for a program that values upside and effort.
