Dupre is a talented receiver but has not put up huge stats for the Tigers, which could have played a role in his decision to leave. He had 41 catches for 593 yards and three touchdowns last season — all of which were down from his stats as a sophomore.
Dupre may have have been encouraged to leave by his strong bowl performance, which included a 7-catch, 139 yard game in a win over Louisville in the Citrus Bowl.
