of not calling a fair catch.

I am much more worried about the crappy kick off returns to date and the inability to consistently reach the endzone by our kicker even at altitude in Provo.

I don't think the plan is always to reach the EZ on kickoffs.

I don't trust our coverage team, I guess...

9 returns for 36 yards & long return of 11. What's not to like?!

Not sure much of that is his fault...he has rarely not had 4 opponents around

He's always been covered very well on returns.

I can't think of 1 single time he's had any room at all.

Oh, did he actually return one?

I like him in LF and CF. Hopefully he's with the Cubs in a couple years.

Have you seen Dye on the sweeps? The kid starts to QB slide anytime anyone gets

I didn't notice that on his one carry against UConn. He got laid out pretty good

They always look like big hits, but he stops running and is already going down

Dillinger

He tenses up when he sees a hit coming. I see a number of BYU players do it...

So basically no point in giving him the ball if he's going to close his eyes and

I don't think the coaches trust him

I don't think that is a Hanneman issue, but rather a coaching issue.

I don't think he let ANY fall last week, did he? in fact I thought he tried to

He has good hands and not afraid of contact. He needs blocking and a wall to

Yeah, I wasn't a fan when he didn't wave our guys off and the ball hit UCONN

Not sure if the returner is the problem....blocking has been terrible.....

Kick returners are worse.

Results aren't great, but is that the blocking? Is it lack of depth?

I don't, but it doesn't matter who is back there. BYU is usually awful
