Message: [QUOTE="KevMonstah, post: 348222, member: 327"] A topic I love to complain about; I don't want Rene back there. He returned ten punts last year, for all of 22 yards. Board members have said "SU doesn't set up to return any thing", "he's got tacklers on top of him every time he catches", "the punter has time to put it anywhere he wants to prevent a return", etc. Ok. Maybe that's true, but I find it hard to believe, against a schedule that includes Rhode Island and Tulane, that he could not find a way to get more return stats than that. I think SU really needs a more explosive returner and more dynamic set of plays by the punt team. They don't rush the punter, they don't block the tacklers, they don't return the ball. They haven't had a game changing play by the punt return team in years. Whatever they can do to get some playmaking back there, they should do. Kev [/QUOTE]
