JUCO Transfer Starter with 2024 Breakout (583 Yds, 9 TDs) Ready to Lead LT Passing Attack
Dane Benedix, a 6'0", 195-lb senior WR from Mission Viejo, CA, is Louisiana Tech's Week 1 starter after transferring from JUCO ranks and primed to be a big factor in the Bulldogs' passing attack [6]. His differentiator is a proven 2024 breakout season where he played all 11 games, recorded 37 receptions (second on team), 583 receiving yards, and nine scores, averaging 53.0 yards per contest [3]. While his 2025 stats show limited early production (3 rec, 14 yds, 0 TD through two games) [1][2], his intensity ran for LT's first-team offense in fall camp, signaling high trust from coaches [6]. He's an active, reliable slot/outside hybrid with big-play history; ideal for teams needing a battle-tested receiver who delivers in critical moments, though 2025 consistency remains to be seen beyond early season.
