You can tell how big a person is by what it takes to discourage him/her.

Pretty sad when our Punt Return plan ended up having to be "Rush 8 guys softly as to not rough the kicker and have the other three just stay out of the way so we didnt muff the punt and give the opposing team the ball inside the 20."

I just saw some of our punt "coverage" from the Utah State game last year in one of their players' highlight tapes. Absolutely horrendous. I hope that's a big point of emphasis this offseason.johnywyo wrote:38. We develop a special teams that is not special needs. We have been atrocious for a decade. No returns on kicks or punts.

Rufran is more of a posession/reliable reciever than a punt returner anyway. The rest, yeah.
