Rashad Greene

What could have been when I think of Rashad Greene’s true freshman season. Injuries shorten that season for him but who could forget his third and 28 yards to go TD reception from Clint Trickett against Oklahoma in 2011.

Greene only appeared in nine games that season, but finished with 38 receptions for 596 yards and seven touchdowns.

Greene had a huge game against No. 20 Clemson with eight receptions for 98 yards and a touchdown. He followed that up with a 12 receptions for 163 yards and a touchdown against Wake Forest before getting injured and missing he next four games.

His performance against Notre Dame in the bowl game was legendary where he had five receptions for 99 yards and a touchdown.

Greene would go on to become one of the greatest FSU football wide receivers of all time.
