i was a very good punt returner my freshman yr in hs. i had great hands, good decisions and good 1st step and wiggle, i only lacked front line speed.
What's even worse is when the potential returner is even afraid to call the fair catch.
An example tonight was the Wyoming returner just watched a Nevada punt bounce by him. Result was a 70+ yard net.
So what happened on Nevada's next punt? Same thing, another net 70+ yard punt. Jeez.
With no big plays in the kicking game, current trend figures to help UNDER bettors marginally.
this is why you need a sure handed white guy returner and decision maker inside own 20 instead of break away speedster who muffs lots of themThey are probably afraid to call the fair catch because they are afraid they are going to muff and/or drop the punt, fair catch or not.
For instance, Missouri this season has had massive problems with fumbled/muffed punts --so against Kentucky they had a "punt returner" fair catch every punt to avoid the turnover. He didn't look the part of a punt returner, rather a sure handed guy who would catch the punt and not muff it.
