21 Days to Purdue Football: Anthony Mahoungou

Purdue needs outside receivers, and the senior from France is busting his butt to see more playing time.

2017 Projection: Contributor at wide receiver

The word on Mahoungou is that he is a hard worker, but limited in what he can actually do. He is a tall, fast receiver, but has yet to truly break out after two years. In 2015 he came over as a JuCo transfer and played in all 12 games. He finished with 8 passes for 93 yards, but like many players under Hazell, he had a strong first game (four receptions for 59 yards) and then was relegated to the bench.
