A punter has not heen named yet and we are gonna have to waite to see how that turns out but there is already an expectation that this stat will turn to a positive one this year. The feel is that most kick offs will result in a touchback rather than a return over the 35 yard line. That will help our D from the start by not putting them on their heels every drive. Football can be a game of inches and we were giving teams starting position near the 40 or better on a regular basis last year. If the average team gets one or to first downs per possession, then we were in trouble from the start. Remember all of our terrible starting field possession last year?
Return game has many options and a ST coach to boot. Much focus has gone into this part of the game. We should see marked improvements across the board on ST this year.
