Explosive Illinois State Receiver With Big-Play Efficiency
Steve Kostro stood out as a high-impact Illinois State receiver in 1998-99, showing real big-play ability with efficient production and scoring upside, including a 1998 season line of 10 catches for 213 yards and a touchdown and a 1999 line of 8 catches for 306 yards, 13.9 yards per catch, and a score[5][2]. He also delivered in key moments, such as a touchdown reception against Southern Utah in 1998[1]. The data suggests a vertical threat who can stretch coverage and create chunk gains, making him a fit for teams that value downfield explosiveness over high-volume possession work[2][5].
