Class: 2023 

Position: Wide receiver 

Size: 5-7, 155 pounds 

Stats: As a junior, he recorded 32 receptions for 786 yards and 10 touchdowns, had 227 yards on kickoff returns and 1 touchdown, and 72 yards on punt returns. Timed at 10.88 seconds in the 100 meters.

Coach Randy Tribble:

“Carter is a great receiver and catches everything that’s thrown to him. His speed and quickness is elite. Just a total difference maker because of the speed, and I think he’s enhanced his speed and quickness this offseason. The last two prospect camps I believe he’s been at he’s clocked a 4.3 something (in the 40-yard dash). 

“He really works hard on making himself better.”
