I thought the idea of the rugby style was two things:

1) you run around towards the side of the punt away from the pressure, thus lessening the chance of a block, and extending the kick time thus giving your coverage team longer to get downfield. Fewer returns.

2) In case the linemen blow out early, you see an opening around the end with the defenders already having their back to you. So, you take off with it and get the first down.

We have accomplished #1. No big returns this year. But he hasn't run the discretion fake. Does he have the call to do that when he sees it?

Seems like we always punt the direction the guy is running full steam at us and the kick is severely low.

Anyone else always scared as ish when Collins Moore fields the punt? I'm always yelling dude get down. He is the slowest WR we have lol he isn't going anywhere

He's back there because he can actually catch the football.

I thought he's done a good job so far this year. Better than say...... Korvic Neat. Or better than Markell Pack, who folks wrote off as a bust last year.
