Looking Forward to the season Kick Returners
In the almost ten years since Bull Run was launched we’ve seen a lot of great team units. But aside from a few highlight moments the returning unit has not been among them.
The last really consistent returner I remember watching was Ernest Jackson and he’s been gone longer than this site has existed.
What I have seen over the years is a lot of turnovers and poor returns which set up terrible field position. Our last kick return for a touchdown was in 2013, and our last punt return for a touchdown was against an FCS squad in 2015.
Devin Campbell was a decent return guy under Quinn in 2013-2014 but the last punt returner to crack UB’s top 10 season average was Naamen Roosevelt back in 2006.
