It depends on who we put back there IMO.

LF is still averaging 23yards per return, which is like 4th or 5th in the SEC.

People are over reacting about him as the returner.

BUT... If we lean on him like last night, and we should, to were hes getting 20+carries per game... I would like to see someone else back there strictly because I dont want him to wear down.

The question is, who do you put back there?

Dural? Hes too valuable to us to risk him back there IMO.

Hilliard? NOPE... sarcasm

White? He already does punt returns. Im really comfortable with White wherever he is and think he would be an excellent kick off returner, but hes also our top CB by far and already returns punts.

Honestly, the guy I would like to see back there is DJ Chark. I think it would be a perfect spot for him. Hes a WR and excellent athlete with great speed. And has already played so its not like he can be redshirted. I think its a great way to get him out there and get him adjusted to this level of play.

This surprises me bc I don't think he looks that explosive on returns. I don't think he's come even close to breaking one yet. He finds the pile around the 24 yd line every time

DJ Chark?

And you've seen enough to know that Chark is as good as Fournette and has excellent ball security?

No, you haven't

You know who I'd like to see? The guy the coaches - who know way more than you - want to see.

How about some Miquel James on Kick Returns. He looks to be a Tridon Holliday type player.
