Tre is dependable to catch the ball and not make mistakes, but he is not the most explosive guy that we could put back there.



you realize this isnt a video game, right?

do you think the most explosive guy returns punts on every NFL or college team in america?

LF is a great runner, a great receiver, but man his KO returns last year were ugly pre-ND. Wasn't impressed by ST last year in general apart from some good returns from Tre White


Just not true on LF. He had excellent ball security, and got better and better as the season went along....rolling into this year....with some experience now, he could be truly special back there as well.

How many games did Miles not allow Patrick Peterson return kicks? He was a junior right?

I would expect ball security to be the base, lowest standard for KO duties. It's vital, but it's an expectation more than something to brag about with LF. He did secure the ball, but he also ran straight into the coverage team every time. But I will admit that he looked discernibly worse compare to guys like PP7, Claiborne, OBJr because of blocking - our previous ST coach is better than Peveto and probably coached these units up a bit more.
