Knight put together one of the best careers by any receiver to wear the Maroon and White. The talented pass catcher still ranks inside the top 10 in MSU history in career receiving yardage and is inside the top five in single-game and single-season yardage.
For his career, Knight caught 81 passes for 1,773 yards. His 21.89 yards per catch are the most ever at State for players who have caught 40 or more passes.
A 1982 All-SEC Team selection, Knight was taken by the Miami Dolphins in the 1984 NFL Supplemental Draft. He'd go on to play in the USFL for the New Jersey Generals.
