MARCH 8 CAA FOOTBALL SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Dejoun Lee, Sr., RB/KR, Delaware (Springfield, Va./Lake Braddock),...Lee returned the opening kickoff 87 yards for a touchdown to set the tone in #25 Delaware's 37-0 win over Maine on Saturday. It was the first time since 1933 that the Blue Hens have took back the first kickoff of the season for a score. Lee finished with 177 all-purpose yards in the game, including a team-high 85 yards and a TD rushing. - Colonial Athletic Association Football

DeJoun Lee ran back the opening kickoff for an 87-yard touchdown and Delaware stayed firmly in control in a 37-0 pasting of Maine on Saturday in the Colonial Athletic Association opener for both teams. Lee also tallied 85 yards on 14 carries with another score, quarterback Nolan Henderson ran for a touchdown and threw for another, and the Blue Hens scored a touchdown in all four quarters.

The Blue Hens (1-0, 1-0) dominated this one on both sides of the ball. Offensively they ran it 47 times for 224 yards; a 4.8-yards per carry average. Henderson threw for 146 yards with 16 completions to seven different receivers. Defensively, Delaware held Maine to 112 yards of total offense allowed the Black Bears (0-1, 0-1) only two conversions on 14 third-down attempts and forced them to turn it over on downs twice on fourth down. Joe Fagnano threw for 61 yards for Maine. - Delaware/AP College Football

Just a few days ago, the Delaware football team had three former Smyrna High standouts ready to make a big impact for the Blue Hens. Suddenly, now it has just one. Running back Will Knight announced on social media Sunday evening that he plans to transfer from Delaware after a season and a half with the Hens. Knight joins freshman linebacker Debo Williams, who announced a couple days ago that he's transferring to South Carolina. - Delaware State News

12/02/20 - Joshua Youngblood, rSr/2024, Delaware + More +

Rutgers still has a need for more speed. The Scarlet Knights followed up Saturday's road upset of Purdue by picking up a Sunday commitment from Kansas State transfer Joshua Youngblood, who was an All-America kick return specialist and Big 12 special teams player of the year last season. Youngblood (5-foot-10, 180 pounds) has three seasons of eligibility remaining, plus a redshirt year. He will presumably be a member of Rutgers' 2021 recruiting class. Here's what you need to know about the Scarlet Knights' newest pickup: Youngblood can fly. The speedster returned three kickoffs for touchdowns as a true freshman in 2019. Youngblood averaged just under 36 yards per return. - Star Ledger

10/16/20 - Joshua Youngblood, rSr/2024, Delaware + More +

Joshua Youngblood is leaving Kansas State not even halfway into his second season. A K-State spokesman confirmed to The Mercury on Tuesday that Youngblood, a sophomore wide receiver for the Wildcats, has entered the transfer portal. The news was first reported by 247Sports. Youngblood had appeared in just two of K-State's four games this season. He had one carry for three yards and three kickoff returns for 54 yards. Youngblood did not record a reception this fall. His transfer brings a stunning end to a K-State career that held so much promise. As a freshman in 2019, he had one of the greatest special teams seasons in the Wildcats' storied history in returners.

Youngblood returned three kickoffs for touchdown, the most in the FBS, on his way to being named the Big 12's special teams player of the year, marking the first time in the league's history that a freshman had earned that honor on offense, defense or special teams. He had 502 yards on 14 returns, an average of 35.9 yards per return - a number that would have led the country had he netted two more attempts needed to meet the NCAA's minimum. It also would have moved into No. 1 in school history for a single season, surpassing Tyler Lockett's 35.2-yards-per-return effort in 2011. - Manhattan Mercury

10/05/20 - Kyron Cumby, rSr/2025, Delaware + More +

Kyron Cumby had a big moment in his Illinois debut in the 2019 season opener against Akron, turning his first career reception into a 31-yard gain. The Plano, Texas, native ultimately went the four games and then redshirt route last season. Cumby's name, however, keeps coming up when both Lovie Smith and offensive coordinator Rod Smith discuss the Illini offense ahead of the 2020 season. The 5-foot-8, 180-pound receiver has made an impression on his teammates, too. "He's got a lot of speed," redshirt junior receiver Donny Navarro said. "He works really hard. He listens really well and is coachable. I know the coaching staff is excited for him. He's excited for himself. He's ready to get out and make an impact this year. He's a good guy to have in the room." - News Gazette Tribune

2019 ALL-BIG 12 FOOTBALL FIRST TEAM (COACHES): KR/PR Joshua Youngblood, K-State,...A native of Tampa, Florida, Youngblood is the first freshman in Big 12 history to be named the Big 12 Player of the Year on offense, defense or special teams. It is the fifth time that a Wildcat earned the league's top special teams honors since the award was established in 2005, joining Morgan Burns (2015), Tyler Lockett (2013 and 2014) and Brandon Banks (2009). Youngblood finished the regular season with a nation-leading three kickoff-return touchdowns, a mark that ranks third in both Big 12 and school history and first among freshmen. His kickoff-return average of 38.1 yards leads the conference by 12.0 yards per return, while he would rank first nationally if he had two more attempts to meet the NCAA's required minimum. - Kansas State Football
