<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; margin: 0in;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.25pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; color: black;"> </span></p>

Cameron has risen from scout-team standout to team captain and breakout star, establishing himself as one of the most dynamic playmakers in the Big 12. He received a scholarship after his first full year with the team, worked his way up the depth chart at
wide receiver and became one of the best punt returners in the country, earning All-America honors in 2024.</span></p>
