Title: Why isn't Payne returning punts and kicks?
Post by: penguinpower on October 13, 2018, 05:25:09 PM
The dude has some speed.  Coats is indecisive and he is not fast or powerful enough.

That would require a competent coach. Bo loves his Youngstown boys.

Hey Power,

Any update on the punter?

That is the answer..Schuler shanked a punt and Bo pulled him.  Kennedy has shanked numerous kicks...he is still in there...can you spell Cardinal Mooney on that check?

I could be wrong, but I think one of Kennedy's punts traveled 29 or 30 yards and he continued punting after that

I was just thinking the same thing. Seriously Bo? One bad punt from a punter whose done well all season yet Kennedy is 5/12 and still in???

I almost couldn’t believe it when I heard him during the press conference. And I’m not trying to be hard on Kennedy, he’s had a decent career, but at some point you have to give someone else a try. Why is the margin of error so wide for our kicker yet so small for our punter

Hey Power,

I don't know the reason and I'm not going to ask.  I joined the game late.  He may have been taking too much time and there may have been concerns with protecting him.  He also did shank a punt.  The wind was a real problem during the game so maybe they thought Kennedy could get the punt off faster or has a stronger leg (I don't think Kennedy has a stronger leg).

I don't know and I am sick of watching the low information press conferences.

We have more coaching problems than we have personnel problems as far as I am concerned.  We are missing several key people that had season ending injuries in fall camp and now we are breaking in new kids with inexperienced coaches (one of which was the worst defensive back in the history of YSU football).

Boy, unfortunately there is some real competition for that spot!

Thanks for the updates on Schuler.  In regards to the kicker, maybe the kid from Hudson will be used in the last four games so that they can still redshirt him.

Where is a kicker like Joey Cejudo when you need him?

Acording to his Facebook page, he is a NFL/CFL Free Agent | Youngstown State Alum | Former Los Angeles Kiss Kicker
Seriously, he might help the kicking, but he didn't block, tackle or cover receives worth a damn, so he is pretty far down my wish list!

I dunno, someone who can get us 3 points when asked is pretty high on mine.

Cejudo was clutch and a California kid to boot, also did a great job punting. Looking at the roster we have five specialists and I'm really not sure why. A good amount of FCS teams have their kickers do double duty so they can utilize more scholarship money elsewhere. If I remember correctly we recruited Schuler as a TE/DE originally. We seem to get less and less contributions from Bo's recruits and have to end up going the transfer and Juco route more and more. I feel some of our problems are because of this
