Amadi can sure up our special teams returns for the next few years. Alabama has used that Jones kid for the last four years. It's a plus when you don't need to put your star players on kick returns. I know we had Peterson and Mathieu return kicks, but we're lucky they did not get injured. With the corners we're bringing in he won't be a starter. we need to take White off returns.

Yeah, I have been pretty disappointed in Fournette and White as returners...obviously not as position players. Fournette has not come remotely close to breaking a KO and a ton of people have seen the T White issue on punts. The guy will field a punt over his head but definitely seems to be worried about coming up and fielding punts.

LSU needs a KO guy shiftier and quicker/change of direction than Fournette and a PR guy who at least will fair catch short punts. That Amadi guy looks like he would qualify.

It is common to have an offensive or defensive star return kicks and punta. I do agree that we need to take White off returns though. if we get Jackson and/or Dillon, that's who I want as PR.
