Thoughts?
Agree. I wouldn't have a punt returner back unless it was absolutely necessary to stop the clock. And maybe not even then.In HS unless you win track meets regularly
I see very little reason to put a punt returner back except to fair catch and prevent rolls. But honestly I see very few catchable balls roll in HS (not saying never)
Especially with the rule changes (I believe early 2000s where every player can leave the LOS at the snap
To me the block in the back risk negates even the “roll” factor JMO
To me you either hurry the punter or make him think you’re coming but mainly be there to put pressure on bad snaps and maybe fall back into fake preventAgree. I wouldn't have a punt returner back unless it was absolutely necessary to stop the clock. And maybe not even then.
Wrt TC, it'll be another tough game I think.
WRT Reed, all I know is hearsay. There's other good backs but we miss him. My personal W.A. guess is that he'll return at least for the playoffs if we make the playoffs.I heard that TC has a really good back. Is he fast or powerful or combo? Hows TC O and D lines? Is reed out for the season?
That'll be interesting. I didn't see the varsity game last year. I did see the JV game, which PNG won. QB #14 and rb #33 had great games, as well as several of the other Jr's including the LBs. This should be another tough game for the Indians, I hope they get fired up.Notice they like to send that big RB straight downhill. North to South. Last year that was disastrous for PNG. Some strong, mistake free linebacker play will be necessary to stop that before it gets out of hand.
