Putting the ‘Special’ in Indiana’s Special Teams

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Optimistic? You'd better believe Kasey Teegardin is, and for good reason.

Indiana's special teams coordinator has two of the best in the Big Ten in kicker Charles Campbell and punter James Evans. He has another strong kicker in Chris Freeman.

He insists there's no better long snapper in the country than Sean Wracher.

Then there's all the potential game-changing talent among the punt and kick returners. Last year, D.J. Matthews Jr. returned a punt 81 yards for a touchdown, and might have returned more if he hadn't torn an ACL early on.
