tgr4lfe 220 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 In the return to practice there has been a shuffle at the punt returner position. Yes, Tre is out as PR and Robert Dunn is in!! O/A News article today Also, catching punts is Brad Lester and Lee Guess. I have heard Dunn is some kind of explosive runner!! We'll see come Jan 2. Talk in the article of Pat Sims watching the practice and talk of him returning to the team. AU commit, Zach Clayton, of Opelika HS, was on the sidelines watching the practice. That quote from Wilhite is classic....Apparently his mother, Glenda Miley, made it clear to him that she wasn’t thrilled with his new choice of name. “It’s Jonathan, now, please,†Wilhite said Thursday. “My mom didn’t want to feed me for Thanksgiving.†Betcha won't do that again now will ya!!

SKCAUB 0 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I don't have the link, but I read that Tre will still be the return man, "UNLESS he loses his confidence", according to Tubs. And he went on to say that "we will see", in practice if he's lost that confidence. I, personally, am for whoever can do it the best.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolltoomer 0 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I trust the coaches, but I wonder why Tristan Davis doesn't get a shot as returner. Maybe he's had his chance in practice and didn't pan out. But surely the "fastest guy on the team" would get a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUHansel 0 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 its not his confidence...its his hands. He muffs punts all the time, even back in 2003. He did it 3 times against LSU that year. I don't think he's the best man for the job, I think they are just being loyal to their older players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He handled them well until the LSU game in 2003 and until about the 7th or 8th game this year. It seems that when he does muff 1 or 2 from then on he does it about 1 in 3 or 1 in 2. That tells me it is in his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vatz22au 142 Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Its everything...his head and his hands. He either cant concentrate and drops the punt....or he runs and fumbles the darn thing. It'd be nice of we had a punt returner that was actually able to run a punt forward.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
