WAR-GIGEM-EAGLE 4 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 haha i dont know if this has been posted, but has anyone seen this??? this coach didn't punt a single time this year and won the state title. His team gave up an 80 yd punt return in 2007 so he just said screw punting. StatTiger could appreciate this guys analysis. Why Punt?? You can just tell people are in the stands thinking, 'You're an idiot.'  Kevin Kelley, coach of Pulaski Academy Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/55589-punting/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud Tiger 4,261 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 With Durst apparently gone maybe we should be punting less too. Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/55589-punting/#findComment-574650 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can just tell people are in the stands thinking, 'You're an idiot.'  Kevin Kelley, coach of Pulaski Academy I read that before. In another article was mentioned that Gus Malzahn also had an aversion to punting -- at least while coaching high school he was like that. It's an interesting concept but it appears to be too radical for college level & above.

rexbo 104 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Patton would have never punted. If you have an efficient offense, throwing away 1/4 of your chances to continue driving does seem like a stupid thing to do, when you really think about it. [Auburn last year was better off punting, we were almost as likely to score on defense!

SKCAUB 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Bet Bear Bryant wished he had thought of that in Iron Bowl '72! I'll bet the Bahr just wished he had thought of the name, "Iron Bowl". But give em a few more years...they'll claim that he did...or Satan did. Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/55589-punting/#findComment-574859 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whta reason would he have to leave he's got the job I don't have a link, so don't believe me if you don't want, but Clinton is really good friends with my sister. But I can tell you that he has a dog named Jake .Anyway, apparently Tubs was going to give Clinton a scholarship and now Chizik isn't. From what I've heard, since he won't be on scholarship, he's got to work. No time for work when he's playing football. So he had to quit. Personally, I'd be pretty upset if I was him.

johnwegl 11 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 This sucks. http://blog.al.com/auburnbeat/2009/01/clin...s_starting.html So, I guess we are going with the "We don't need to punt" approach. this isn't good.
