He’s quick but drops more passes than he should.
My youngest is at UW, so I went to and watched a lot of their games this year and last. Pauling struck me, just as a layman observer, as a guy who never reached his potential this year. But they also had a qb who struggled to throw a good ball. Maybe he’ll shine if we have a better passer - hope so.
I remember watching a couple games this year, and some of those drops the ball placement wasn’t good
When he was on, he was good, but definitely has a down year. He struggled with two quarterbacks.
This year's QB play wasn't good
I wouldn't put the bulk of the blame on Pauling. He was actually a good WR1 in 2023, back when Tanner Mordecai had been the QB. This year's QB tandem of Braedyn Locke and Tyler Van Dyke hasn't exactly been stellar.
I would compare his situation to what Equanimeous St. Brown had to deal with in 2017. Back in 2016, with Deshone Kizer as his QB, he came close to having a 1000 yard season. In 2017, with Brandon Wimbush as the QB, he nearly got his neck broken several times.
Had St. Brown stayed for the 2018 season with Book at the helm, I would have bet dollars to dimes that he would have had a very fine season.
Oh goody, another Beaux Collins...

Collins has been productive this year
He's the closest thing we have to a WR1, and leads all receivers in receptions and yardage.
If he puts out production similar to what Collins did this year, then it will be a good thing. I suspect he'll do better, though.
Collins is ranked 257 nationally. 34 yards per game. He's serviceable.

hey Jack-offs (who I bet you and your boyfriend never buckled a chin strap), I was agreeing
with what was said above about Pauling dropping more passes than he should have.....if you watched all ND games his year, Collins fits that comment - he did have his more than fair share of dropped passes that were right in his hands. Never said he didn't help contribute to ND's success this season.
If Collins doesn't make that third down catch vs A&M, we're playing in the Gator Bowl

Frank, move this wingnut to the 12 year old board.

Slot receiver, so I doubt he sees nearly as much playing time
We already have lots of capable slot receivers.
