Our punt teams are the worst I've seen at Florida

[Zambo]

I have NEVER seen us try to fair catch a punt inside the 5 yard line. Today I saw it twice! TWICE!

What in the name of Zeus' butthole are we doing on punt teams? We consistently let field-able punts hit the ground and roll another 20 yards, but when they are trying to pin us we just go ahead and pin ourselves. Our ST coach needs to be fired. Seriously. It takes zero athletic ability to stand on the 10 yard line as a returner and simply not back up to catch a punt. This is just poor poor coaching.

And if that weren't bad enough, how many penalties did we commit when it was our turn to punt? And how many return yards did we give up? It was an atrocious performance. I am used to crappy offense at this point but our ST has traditionally been ok. Today was an abortion.

Callaway had his head up his @ss today.

 

[chferg]

Nord baby... Gotta love his coaching ability

 

[oxrageous]

Agreed. Calloway broke every rule of punt returning, like it was his first time. Our punt coverage was atrocious.

Awful coaching.

 

[MidwestChomp]

Actually 3 times. He fair caught one at the 1 yard line, 6 yard line, and dropped one inside the 10 on a fair catch.

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Not sure what happened to Callaway today. He's never done dumb crap like he's done on punt returns today. Last year he was one of our only scoring threats for half a season on punt return, so I know he can do it. Inexplicable.

 

[oxrageous]

Hell, Calloway did a fair catch at the ONE YARD LINE. I don't think I've ever seen that in my life at any level.

 

[Zambo]

I understand putting Callaway in to try and spark us with a return, but Jesus tapdancing Christ if you're going to just fair catch the ball don't back up! What a total explosive brain fart.

Dude he did it TWICE!!!! TWICE! And one was a fumble. I am not exaggerating when I say that I can personally do better than that every day of the week.

 

[NavetG8r]

I just wonder if Callaway wasn't on some kind of pain meds for his quad that had his head all foggy. He sure played like it today on the punts.

If the game had continued he may have tried to top himself with a fair catch in the end zone for a safety.

remember when we used to block punts and tackle well on special teams.....? good times.

 

[GatorJ]

Nord should be fired TODAY. This is just out of control. This is THE WORST 2 years of Special Teams we've ever had. Good news - We have a punter and kicker.

Our Special Teams are terrible, We do not even try to block kicks anymore. Nord should have climbed in Calloway's as* for fair catching inside the 10 - the first time he did that nonsense.

Exactly. How can you make the same huge mistake in a game THREE times? It's beyond belief.

 

[gator1946]

Yep we actually topped the Zooker today. I didn't think it was possible.

 

[Zambo]

Man did you guys see that time when we fielded the punt inside the 10? Holy hell!

 

[oxrageous]

Man did you guys see that time when we fielded the punt inside the 5? Holy hell!

FIFY

 

[Doopree]

So who's fault is it, Butters or Nuss?!?!

Yep. Nord should be fired immediately. All of last year is enough to justify firing him, but today is inexcusable.
