I want Ameer returning kicks again

[Jack_John_Mark]

I know I said before the season started that I didn't want him back there but I do now.

He's the biggest threat we have to bust one loose. Plus I've never seen him more shifty and quick than he has looked this year.

He's a Heisman candidate for a reason. Turn him loose and let him make all the plays. Kid has never ending determination.

Let me clarify.

Not punts. Kickoffs.

I don't want to risk injury to Ameer on a kickoff.

I think Terrell Newby is very shifty.

Demornay Pierson-El looks good to me also.

I want to see if Nate Gerry can use his blazing speed.

Just seeing him return that one on Saturday to set up his go-ahead TD made me realize we are missing out.

When you have a Heisman candidate you need to get him on the field in any way you can.

I honestly don't think he gets hurt. He's a machine.

My guess, Ameer told the coaches to put him in because the coaches were once again, DESPERATE, for a win.

Just like last year's Northwestern game, the coaches went to the players and said help us. Ameer took the heat and saved the game.

Bo said after the game he put him out there because he's one of the best playmakers in the country and it was time for someone to make a play. He said he told him to try and take it to the house.

Whether or not that is true, I don't know. That's what he said though.

Ameer didn't set up the go ahead TD... we had to punt, then we three and outed them and DPE fair caught a punt to set up the game winning TD. That being said, I think Ameer should be allowed to return a few kicks every now and then, but not regularly. DPE is a good punt returner but it looked like he struggled reading blocks on the KR.

Good catch there.

My mind was going wild there in the 2nd half of that 4th quarter.

If only we had a 350k a year special teams coach.

450k

But whose counting other than he and Riley?

 

[HuskerPower52]

Holy shit iI thought if anything it would be 250k. Man 450k to pull a kids red shirt 6 games into the season and then tell him to fair catch kick offs.


We in the wrong biz RA

Foltz and Brown are earning their keep, but they're individuals. I doubt it has anything to do with Read.

The Huskers have always had decent punters and kickers.
