FSU football: Mark Snyder thinks special teams will be a strength in 2019

FSU football used to be known for having awesome special teams. Just think of the likes of Peter Warrick and Greg Reid returning punts.

What about Roberto Aguayo’s perfect kickoffs that forced teams to return kicks and FSU special team players racing down to tackle the returner at the 14 yard line?

Remember Shawn Powell averaging 47 yards per punt in 2011? Yes, we haven’t seen any resemblance of any of those things in quite some time.

Well, D.J. Matthews has been fairly good at returning punts when he’s gotten the chance. Logan Tyler wasn’t terrible punting last year.
