Maybe I'm not remembering this correctly but it seems to me that early in the season - when Watson was playing really well - HE was the point guard. He brought the ball up and got the offense started. Apparently somewhere along the line we made Tai the PG. Even when Watson is in the game he'll pass it to Webster to bring it up the floor and get the offense started. That seems odd to me. You're taking probably your second-best player and moving him out of the role that he is best at. Not sure what that's about.

Interesting thing to consider: If the problem really is Miles, would it be better to cut him loose and try to let someone else take advantage of the talent we have? As opposed to keeping him around and just hoping things get better.

Whoops.

Fixed. Thanks.

Defensive Special Teamer (Gunner): Insane - Have you ever seen these idiots play football? They run as fast as they possibly can down the field in order to run into an oncoming wedge/defender head on! But, busting up a wedge to allow another player to make the tackle on the returner is very important. This poster probably has some weird and wild ideas, but still get the job done. Eric Martin is just the most recent example of this position, but Brandon Rigoni may be the best. Speedy - Once the ball is in the air, the defensive special teamers need to get to the ball as fast as possible to either make the tackle or down a punt close to the opposing goal-line. There's nothing that frustrates a coach more than giving the other team 20 free yards! We need someone who is a speed poster and has the body control and ability to down the ball inside the 10! Young - Coaches love to use true freshmen on special teams. Normally they don't want their skill players getting hurt on a kick/punt coverage or returning. I think this position should be filled by a "rookie" of HuskerBoard - maybe someone who has only been here for 3 months or less...longer if we can't think of anyone.

Long Snapper: Versatile - You don't realize how much he is actually on the field. He's on the field when your team is doing well - scoring touchdowns or attempting field goals - and when they aren't doing as well - punting. Some of his snaps are long and some are short but always accurate. Has to be someone that contributes in a lot of ways. Unsung Hero - When he's doing a great job, you sometimes don't even realize he's there. A guy who contributes effectively and often but might not always get the recognition he deserves. Upwardly mobile - Might not get a lot of pub now but that doesn't mean he doesn't have a future. Every NFL team need a long snapper. Might cash in on a nice career by finding a niche and excelling at the next level. Please nominate the person you feel best exemplifies these traits on HuskerBoard.

Punt Returner: Fair Catch ability - If the PR knows he's going to get drilled if he tries a runback, he needs to wave the arm, concentrate on the ball, and make the fair catch. This poster should always think about the best way to approach a question and to give the best answer as to not bring on extra attack from others (and a spear tackle from a gunner)! Makes the first guy miss - The most important move for the PR is making that quick sidestep to the left or right to get the first man in to commit to a poor tackle (like Niles Paul's return against Colorado this year). Once this is accomplished, the PR can follow his blocks and use his cutting ability to score the TD. To me, this guy is really a sneaky member! He'll give you enough of a comment to reel you into arguing with him, and then, BAM! You've just missed the point completely, and the poster looks like a fantasy genius with his reply to your opposing viewpoint! Shifty - Can change directions on a dime, makes people miss. Look no further than Johnny Rodgers' electrifying return in the Game of the Century for the ideal of this trait. Rodgers dipped, dived and dashed his way through the heart of the Sooner coverage team en route to maybe the most important TD in Nebraska history. Lightning-quick speed and reaction time, young, smart, able to make an opening for himself where one doesn't exist. Please nominate the person you feel best exemplifies these traits on HuskerBoard.

Kick Returner: RB wanna-be - When no opening is created, a Kick Returner normally tries to plow through the opposing special team members head on to try to gain some extra yards. Therefore, the ideal HuskerBoard KR has Running Back capabilities. You might want to consult the description of RB (not afraid to take hits, consistent, competitive, reliable) in order to best make a nomination/vote. High top speed – Josh Davis was the prototypical KR. He could run straight from his own goal line and reach a very high speed by the time he got to the 20. By this time, the defense has hit the wedge and he could either find the seam to take it to the house or blast through the best hole he could find to get some yardage. A poster who really gets on a roll with their posts and can find that bit of extra info that someone opened up for him would be a great KR. Dangerous - He may not be on the field a lot, but when he is, look out! A threat to take it all the way Please nominate the person you feel best exemplifies these traits on HuskerBoard.
