Finding some returners
UCLA has experience at placekicker (Kai Forbath) and punter (Aaron Perez), but coach Rick Neuheisel said he hopes someone steps up in the return game.
"We need a returner,'' Neuheisel said. "We need someone to flourish as a returner. It might be Courtney Viney."
I thought Terrance Austin did a good job on punt returns. Does this mean they are looking to replace him?
In my opinion, TA didn't do a good as a job as I or many had hoped. Hopefully he can focus on his route running and catching ability, and flourish there instead. Hopefully he can have a breakout season this year.
It might also be Milton Knox by Fall to flourish as our return man. He runs very similar like Mo Drew-Jones.
Brewinbob,
I concur with your assessment of Austin. He dropped at least 2-3 punts last year and had several drops at receiver. He needs major improvment at receiver to fulfill any of his 4 star hype
ouch. I guess the purge has begun.
