Wasn't that in the PB era of no special teams coach? That alone would be one of the biggest changes?

What ever happened to Loftus?

And since one of those was run back for a touchdown, that means when our opponent lines up for a FG attempt, they are getting outscored. :lol:


The more I think about that, the more amazing it gets. We are outscoring our opponents on *their* field goal tries this year. Wow. :shock:

If I remember correctly Bennett though that coaching special teams should be a collaborative endeavor with all coaches contributing.

absolute weapon.


Wrong. Our kick offs are very weak as Sada kicks off very low trajectory kicks and most are barely inside the 20. This raises havoc on the special teams coverage and gives the other team great field position. Glaring weakness.


In my opinion our single biggest weakness. This guy right now isn't a division one talent.
