I'll stick with complaining ...reminded me of this clip from south park: http://www.southparkstudios.com/clips/386585/my-name-is-dr-marsh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While possible through training, it's more difficult to take a guy who can kick high but not very long and try to get him to have distance. Now technically it takes very similar leg strengths to kick high versus kicking far...so why can't JBK do it consistently? We've pinned teams deep, and we've let very little return yards, but we suck when it comes to flipping the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang time is also important, and is what JBK is good at. Look at how many punt return yards we gave up --- 19 yards (16 came against WVU). What good is a 60 yard punt if it gets there so quickly they can return it for 30 yards?? Net return yards is what is important and JBK had a pretty good year by our standards. Net return yards 2011 - 34.7 yards 2010 - 34.2 yards 2009 - 34.6 yards 2008 - 36.4 yards 2007 - 34.7 yards 2006 - 30.0 yards 2005 - 34.1 yards huh, i didnt know jbk posted on here. clearly has to be him, because he'd be the only one dillusional enough to believe he wasn't complete garbage.

That was good enough to place us as 114 out of 120 teams. Not good....period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
