Utah State’s speed-first weapon with big-play juice
McNeal was described by Utah State as a receiver with “good speed” who could factor in the return game, and teammates/coaches viewed him as one of the fastest players the program had ever had[2][12]. In the 2004 season, he posted 26 receptions for 366 yards and a touchdown, while also adding 122 rushing yards on 29 carries[5]. That’s a versatile, change-of-pace profile: if your team wants a compact, explosive athlete who can stress defenses horizontally and create hidden yardage, McNeal is the kind of playmaker worth caring about[3][5].
