re: Phil Steele has UGA as his #1 surprise team in 2014

But the return teams were god awful. We were 124 out of 125 in D1 punt returns last year. We were 110 in kick returns. We have too much talent for that. That has to improve. That's an easy way to turn those close losses into close wins.

So true. I think the staff has gone out of their way to address this portion of Special teams. The addition of the perspective from Special team ace Mike Ekeler will prove to be invaluable, in my opinion. As well as making sure they signed a return specialist in the past signing class with Isaiah McKenzie, who I think is going to be very special. I can see better days ahead for UGA in this area.
