Sometimes, criticism is grudgingly accepted. Boise State’s Cedrick Wilson welcomes it.
The senior wide receiver, a team captain, said following the Sept. 22 loss to Virginia that he was going to spend far more time thinking about the two dropped passes he had than the career-high 13 catches he made.
Soon after the game, Wilson read a text from his father, also named Cedrick, who played seven seasons in the NFL.
“He said, ‘13 catches and you only score once? That’s a problem,’ ” Wilson said.
Against the Cavaliers, the younger Wilson had 209 receiving yards, scoring on a 40-yard touchdown on the final offensive play.
