Receiver accumulates numbers, memories with Cajuns

LOUISIANA La. — Little things can add up to big results.

Fred Stamps will leave Louisiana as one of the finest receivers in school history, second only to Brandon Stokley in sheer numbers.

But the Carver High product will also leave behind an indelible impression as a player willing to work at his craft each day, a player who loved being on the football field.

“The most important thing I’ve done is just working hard,” said Stamps, who went out in style with an eye-catching 13-catch, 201-yard, 3-touchdown performance in the season finale at Middle Tennessee.

“I love to practice. Once you get warmed up, the coaches make it fun. I just love to play football. I’ve been playing it since I was 6 years old, and I’ve been catching the football since I was a little baby.”

Last summer, Stamps joined other receivers in working with UL quarterbacks against defensive backs to hone their craft, working on the details that would later make the Cajuns a better squad.

“Me and Jerry Babb would get out there every day in the summer, starting around 3 o’clock and sometimes going until 7,” Stamps said. “We were out there every day, trying to get better.”

Once the season began, Stamps served as the leader of the Cajun receiving corps as well as a security blanket for Babb, a redshirt freshman getting his first taste of the college game against a rugged schedule.
