Shen Grad, Robert Morris WR Kyle Buss Joins Us

Earlier today, I had the opportunity to speak with Shen graduate and college football standout Kyle Buss.

Buss, a freshman at Robert Morris, had eight catches for 160 yards last week in the Colonials game against Central Connecticut State last Saturday.

As a result, he was named Northeast Conference Freshman of the Week. He was also one of three players to get Honorable Mention for National Freshman of the Week.

Buss now has 34 catches for 523 yards on the year. His 34 catches with three games left in the season tie him for the freshman record at Robert Morris. His 523 yards rank him third among FCS rookies in receiving yards this season.

His 160 yards last week are the most in any game in the Northeast Conference this year by a non-senior. It’s also the highest total by an NEC rookie since at least 2007.

Robert Morris is 2-6 this year and is taking on East Tennessee State this week.
