Do we need a new kickoff guy for next yr?

[upperdeck]

someone should have the coaches look at the Cornell punter/kicker. he kicks off thru the endzone and has kicked 67 yds in practice. he already pays for school so walking on at SU shouldnt scare him.

I think 30 % of our roster is made up of kickers next year.

How do u know he pays for school?

 

[PhatOrange]

Don’t know but we do need a new kick return guy and I was hoping this year

 

[upperdeck]

if he gets a free ride to cornell he probably gets much the same at SU as a walkon.

Sean Riley is top 30 in the country in return average.

Sean Riley is top 30 in the country in return average.

I hear ya but it's a deceiving stat. He's not a threat to take one back and surely doesn't scare anyone kicking off.

Here are his numbers against P5:

LSU > 2 for 33
NC State > 2 for 35
Pitt > 1 for 19
Clemson > 4 for 77
Miami > 1 for 16

Average = 18

against CCU, MTSU and CMich his average was almost 35

Numbers aside though, he's just not a return threat.

is that his fault or the return unit as a whole.

Doesn't Hofrichter have the leg for kickoffs?

Take out the word "on" and I would have thought Millhouse posted this.

I'd like to see someone with better breakaway speed, but I wonder if the blocking is going to get us much more no matter who is returning.

You'd have to take out the word "not" too.
