Would that balance out the fact that McManus can drive the ball to the back of the end zone on kickoffs?  Guess we'll see....


How can you say a move that makes sure Logan Cooke never kicks off for us again is lateral?    If anything it lets Logan focus on punts only, while our kicker take every kickoff and tries to boom the ball out of the end zone every time.   I recently rewatched the Ratbird game...remember our final kickoff?   Fortunately they came up 5 yards short on the game winning field goal.

Despite his field goal, percentage, Riley Patterson was a liability in the kickoff game

It almost bit us in the butt in two or three games if I recall correctly

I think our new special teams coordinator values this more than most casual fans
