Who is he:
In just two years, Blythe has ascended and become the best WR in the big XII. His tall frame and excellent hands have made him a big target for the Iowa State. He returns to Cyclones this year and looks to put up a second straight 1,000 yard season and a third straight season of 9 TDs.

Notes:
- First team all-Big 12 2004 (Espn.com, Dallas Morning News)
- Second team all-Big 12 2004 (Coaches, AP)
- Second team freshman All-America 2004 (The Sporting News)

What to Expect in ’06:
Blythe’s production has gone up steadily the past two years and he’s a threat for the big play averaging over 20 yards per catch in his career. His receptions rose from 39 to 51 last year, an I expect it to continue to rise.
Projection: 60 receptions, 1120 yards, 10 TDs

That's a big receiver right there. If he can jump real high, I'd think he'd go places.

Very good, actually. Bret Meyer is back in his 3rd year of starting. I expect alot of good things from both of them. I'm pretty big on the Blythe bandwagon, he's a quality player. He's also the first of two white WRs in my top 40. :hyper:
