Two Gators among ESPN’s greatest receivers of the last 50 years

Wes Chandler and Reidel Anthony appeared on ESPN’s list of the 50 greatest receivers of the last 50 years in college football.

Though Florida football is mostly known for its quarterback play with three players winning the Heisman Trophy at the position, it has also produced a number of very skilled receivers. Including Percy Harvin, Dallas Baker, Ike Hilliard and so many more, the best teams in program history have all had top-tier receivers.

Unfortunately, none of the players just mentioned appear on ESPN’s rankings of the 50 greatest college football receivers of the last 50 years, which was written by college football analytics expert Bill Connelly. However, two former Gator pass-catchers do.

One honorable mention from UF also appears. Here’s where each of the UF players stacks up, starting with Kyle Pitts.
