HuskerfaninOkieland Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 With all the pissing and moaning going on around here, if you haven't heard, Niles Paul was named Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week. Big 12 Sports By the way, quit pissing and moaning about the team. They're 2-0. We knew there would be some difficulty during the season. This place is sounding like a f'ing chicken coop around here with all the squaking and cackling going on Edited to add: Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week Niles Paul, Nebraska, KR/PR/WR, So., Omaha, Neb. Niles Paul returned two kickoffs for 111 yards, including an 85-yarder for a touchdown in Nebraska’s win over San Jose State. He also had two punt returns for 21 yards and caught two passes for 27 yards. The sophomore is averaging 40.0 yards per kickoff return to rank third in the Big 12 and fifth nationally. He is sixth in the league in punt returns (13.2) and in the top 30 in NCAA rankings. Quote Link to comment

junior4949 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Is anyone out there as excited as me about this kid? Isn't he like 6'4 and runs a mid 4.3 40? He's definitely a game breaker. I think we've got some of those on this team. We're definitely more talented than a lot of people are giving us credit for, but we're making several mistakes right now. Quote Link to comment

hskrfan4life Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 This kid has a chance to be the next dejaun groce if he gets enough returns. His kick return was the turning point in the game IMHO Quote Link to comment

I'd really like to see Gilleylen out there getting some action. I know he doesn't have the best hands, but he seems like he could be an energizer and big play guy. Quote Link to comment

Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 What about whoever gave SJS's QB a concussion? When's the last time we've done that?!! But really, I'm super stoked about Paul. Kinda wished he would've redshirted last year so we could have him around longer... Quote Link to comment
clone Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 the ganzinator will find him more often. Go Bo!! Quote Link to comment
BigRedfxtoy Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 And to the credit of the team as well.... did anyone catch the fact that Castille (I think) was right behind him and kept TWO defenders from getting to Paul? Now that is hustle and finishing a play. That was almost absent last year. Niles is the real deal and I can't wait to see this kid get better. And he WILL with more experience.
