Philyor joins the Watch List SZN fun

Whop Philyor is already’s Indiana’s top receiver.

On Thursday, he joined a list of the nation’s best players at his position.

One of 55 preseason candidates for the award, Philyor enters his senior season with 126 catches, 1,572 yards, nine touchdowns, six 100-yard games and five double-digit reception games for his career. He’s also the 13th Hoosier to amass both 125 receptions and 1,500 yards.
