[QUOTE="gtrower, post: 41005, member: 375"] I agree with this. If nothing else, I refuse to believe we can't turn him into a kick returner. Instincts help a lot (a la Golden) but it's not like punt returns where you have to have confidence catching the ball and make the first guy miss. All you have to do is remember which direction the blocking scheme is and run that way. With his speed he'd get lucky at least once/twice a year and break one just from running straight ahead. Not a bad idea above as well to just have him run a route and try to get behind. I'm thinking something like the play we opened the MTSU game with in 2011. Where we had Zenon line up at BB and just run a wheel route down the sideline - I think we did it with Laskey in '12 against UVA as well. Both went for easy (long) TDs with LBs trying to run with RBs down the sideline. There simply has to be a way to get that kind of speed some touches in a game. [/QUOTE]
