174...that is a bit depressing. It seem like just yesterday we had The Rocket running back kickoffs for touchdowns every other game. Special teams definitely need to improve from last year.

It seemed like we took a step back in special team play last year as compared to Weis' first year for whatever reason. Big plays in the return game often win games.

We definitely took a step back this year. Corwin can't do it all, but I think he will help our defense, special teams, and recruiting...and then he will be a head coach in about three years for a MAC / Mountain West type school.

Oh yeah, we are going to be loaded on special teams now with great athletes everywhere. Zoom Zoom and Golden will help a lot. I actually wouldn't mind seeing Zibby on Punt returns and kickoff returns, then step it up on defense and be a 1st team all-american 1st round draft pick!!!
