I believe that's by design. You don't really see guys take the kick off out of the end zone much anymore, so pin pointing the kick off at the 5 makes the returner have to make a decision on whether he wants to fair catch it or take it. If you don't allow them to get 20 yards, you net a positive result.
Yeah I find it fascinating that we chose to not return as many kicks as we did. Punting was obvious.. our punt return team was absolutely horrific. But Nwangu was the best kick returner in the Big 12 his freshman year and last year we didn't even try to use him as a weapon. I'm not sure if that was Campbell having a ton of confidence in the offense moving the ball, but it eliminates a large element of the game. The winning percentage of a game sky rockets after a special teams touchdown.
Based on his offers, I'm gonna say no. Unless he has had academic issues this entire time
I have no idea what the academic standards are for military schools. They might be extremely low, or they might be average so i can't say and don't feel like googling
I think the Iowa game set a tone for the rest of the year in regards to our return teams. I think that game made our coaching staff second guess almost every single decision and it hurt us. We got incredibly passive and so passive that when we decided to actually take the chance to return a punt or a kick, I think we played not to screw up and that's the worst way to play.
