Jared Cornelius - He has a nice set of hands on him. He catches the ball away from his body and will contribute this season. As well as he caught the ball as a receiver he dropped 2 punts and that was slightly alarming. Nice looking freshman, instant contributor.


Nothing against Cornelius -- I'm looking forward to seeing him in action -- but sweet baby Jesus can we get someone who can consistently and reliably field punts?

I'm not asking for Joe Adams, I just want someone whom I can trust not to drop the ball on a fair catch in a crucial punt situation.

If this team is going to "over-achieve" this season, it need a Joe Adams type player.

The mid-major approach to special teams will be needed.

It always amazed me when Nutt was here that we couldn't find one guy to field punts consistently. BP shored that up from year one, hopefully we're not going back to the Nutt days of horrendous special teams b/c it cost us numerous times during the Nutt years w/ the Fish fumble being the obvious #1
