Message: [QUOTE="jekelish, post: 1227272, member: 82"] This is a really weird comparison to make, but Cooney reminded me of someone else, from a different sport. When Cooney brings the ball up the floor, there's no flash, he doesn't try to get side to side on people, he just focuses on a straight line and tries to get to that position and make something happen. This might seem like a bizarre connection and weird stretch, but I couldn't help but think of Max Suter returning kickoffs for us back in the day. Not a "pure" kick returner, no dazzle to the way he did it, but he was effective because he just sprinted straight ahead and put his head down, trying to beat the defenders to a spot. [/QUOTE]
