I’ll be happy with a 20+ yard return.

So far, Zavion Thomas has 10 punt returns for 41 yards (4.1avg). His long return was 15 yards. Good luck with your prediction though.

Zavion started off so promising. Looked like he was a shoelace away from housing a couple and then the returns have fallen off to nothing

Too conservative for that, looks like we are just avoiding risk of a turnover at this point

Zavion has been closed to breaking a few returns but we are too conservative.

I had my hopes up for a punt return this season but dont think its happening

And it will get called back for an illegal block.

He's on pace for like 15 total return opportunities for the season. We don't force a ton of returnable punts

I could definitely see him housing a kick return

Well in LSUs defense I’m not seeing any other teams lighting it up lately on punt returns either. SEC anyway

I don’t give a shite if we never gain a single yard on punt returns

Just ecstatic we aren’t dropping the punt once a game!!

I'll take his steadiness catching the football. That is one area that has yet to surface this season.

Would be the perfect time for him to break a long one for a TD!

TS will ignite!

Returns were more important when teams only completed 15 passes a game

I'm in. Should Anderson start returning them? Looks like he may have the best acceleration out of everyone, not top end, but best initial burst, 2-3 steps.

I don’t really care about average.

He has looked good and it just takes one crease.
I dont mind him getting 1-2 extra if he feels like he can.
