It hasn't received much attention, but Devon Cajuste broke a long-standing school record last year. He averaged 22.9 yards per reception, which broke the old school record of 21.2 yards per catch by Miles Moore in 1971.
So what's the minimum number of catches to hold this record?
Cajuste had 28 catches averaging 22.9 yards per reception.
Rector had 14 catches averaging 30.8 yards per reception.
Apparently Moore had 41 catches when he averaged 21.2 yds per reception (12 games that season).
