Wait a second I thought McCluster was predominantly wide out??



He played WR his first two years I think then his Jr year played some at RB. His senior year he played primarily running back but still caught a lot of passes.

From his Wiki page:

McCluster's senior season was full of highlights as he set two school records against Tennessee for rushing yards in a game with 282 and all-purpose yards in a game with 324. In his final game in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, he ran for 148 yards and threw the only collegiate touchdown pass of his career in the 25-23 win over then 9th-ranked LSU. He rushed for 1,169 yards on 181 attempts (a 6.4 yards per carry average), and made 44 receptions for 520 yards with 12 total touchdowns that made him the only player in SEC history to rush for over 1,000 yards and receive for 500 yards in a single season. He finished his college career at Ole Miss with 3,685 yards from scrimmage and 23 TD's.

Ironically McCluster set the Ole Miss record against UT who was being coached by Lane Kiffin!
