Australian style punt. Rugby / Australian rules football kicks like that and that’s what our punter played

Thanks for the answer but it is not working.

The ARF punters are actually also runners/passers/receivers. The advantage of using an ARF punter is that they can take off and run for the first down.
In ARF, the punter has to run away from the defenders (out of necessity) in order to kick the ball because the is less set protection scheme than the American football.
In American football, there is a well designed protection scheme. Since it is much easier to punt the football standing still than running, hence we don’t see too many ARF punters in American football.
Why are we doing it. Who knows.
Well, it is not working for us because we don’t have the right guy.

Craycraft does nothing for this team. He needs to sit and Waid needs to be the guy from here on out.
goodnews:
WOW, 64 yards passing! It sounds like we have bigger concerns then Crenshaw's foot work.
Kandrase:
NDSU got beat 38-14 by SIU... yikes. Next week is gonna be rough. You guys were right about this not being a typical NDSU team.

Thanks to you guys for explaining it to me, I can see where there is an option to run but that would be rare. My main concern is helping field position. Distance and hang time!
