Next year? Let's face it, guys like PP, Holiday, & Sheppard don't grow on trees. Our Special Teams have been on fire as of lately.

Yes.

While disappointing, 2010 will be good motivation for Russell.

The kid is going to own in next year with a real QB getting him and Randle the ball.

History says no. More likely to be Randle on PR and who knows on KR.

Based on what I've seen, no. He hasn't exhibited the 'wiggle' it takes to make an impact on ST.

Let's keep in mind of something.

Randle did take one punt the distance that was called back.

He has got to be one of the top guys.

Tyrann Mathieu
Jahkari Gore

That's who I'd like to see returning kicks/punts.

RR was a hell of a return man back in high school. You will see him return some for TD's next year.

I would think so. Isn't Jakari Gore supposed to be a return guy as well?

PP should have been doing returns during his whole career at LSU. One of the best returners I've seen didn't start getting his turn until his last season.

Shep has to catch the ball

Ron Brooks? Even though he's been overshadowed by PP7, he's been back there the past two years on kickoffs.

No way Miles trusts Shep's hands on punt and kick returns.

Honestly, RS hands worry me on PRs. I know PP dropped one or two but it was usually related to him NOT fair catching balls. PP7's hands/ball skills are way better than any WR we have IMO.
