As the Panthers have started their season 5-0, Bryant has been a big reason for their success. The 6-foot-1, 195-pound pass-catcher has hauled in 421 yards and seven touchdowns while averaging 30.1 yards per catch. That has numerous schools looking already to the talented young man.

"Oh yeah, I'm getting letters," Bryant said. "Oklahoma State, Florida State, Texas Tech, Iowa, UCLA, and Texas A&M have been the main ones so far. I'm not ready to have a favorite yet because I want to wait until next year."

"When I was a kid, I always cheered for Texas A&M," Bryant said. "I just liked how they looked and how they do things there."
