I guess you missed that punt return for negative eight yards.

You know what's coming because unlike some of the other speed threats in the SEC, Holiday is pretty much useless on any play he's not involved in. If he were on the field all the time, it would be like playing 10 against 11.

The RBs UF has are actually a threat to run a wheel route or something.

Think about it. Holiday simply MUST have hands of stone. If you lined him up on the outside, he's gonna get all kinds of cushion so a quick pass out there would be easy to complete AND, it's the kind of pass Crowton likes to throw. This makes it pretty obvious that they don't trust Holiday to actually catch the thing.

So, if he is in regularly, who do you pull? Would you line him up at RB regularly and pull Scott? If you would, thank God you're not coach.

Yet they trust him to catch punts? Come on man. He needs to be out there I don't care who you sub him for. This guy is a play maker so it's up to our coaches (who make a lot more money than most of us teaching a game) to figure out.
