Punt Return TD

Coach Chris has done an outstanding job developing the punting game and punt coverage units at Tulane. His attention to detail has been second to none, particularly when it comes to lane discipline and directional punting, pinning returners to one side of the field and making life much easier for the coverage unit.

You have to remember, a punt return TD isn’t just about the returner’s ability. It’s about tackling, pursuit angles, and having your coverage unit in the proper position to make a play.

Under Coach Chris, those types of coverage breakdowns simply don’t happen. His special teams units are fundamentally sound, disciplined, and exceptionally well coached. The man has been a godsend.

I’d argue that particular punt return doesn’t go much of anywhere with Coach Chris on the sideline. That’s the difference an elite special teams coordinator makes.

Poor tacking on punt return is a symptom of a larger problem. I question our weekly preparation.

We have been subpar in punting stats in addition to just the poor punt coverage. Bottom line. The eye in the sky don’t lie and special teams cost us potentially a spot in the CFP.

Almost dead last in SEC punting stats.

Dead last in net punting.

No they aren't. In fact if you look at it, LSO's net is higher than #4, The rankings need to be reshuffled to the net not the avg punt. They're also above #9 Texas, BTW, how does #16 Auburn have a better net than avg punting? Are the coverage units there averaging in tackling for losses?
