knapplc Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Punter: 1) Big Leg - This guy booms the ball down the field (usually 60 yards - 45 yard punts plus their 15 yard dropback!) to give the other team bad field position for their offensive series. Following through the ball and a high leg finish are their trademarks! This member's posts go "a long way" to making his side of the argument better. 2) Unsung Hero - The punter has a specific job, and he does it to the best of his ability. He doesn't normally get a chance to put points on the board, so some fans and players might forget about him. But when he pins the other team by their goal line, it's a big positive for the club! Maybe this guy doesn't get a whole lot of kudos around HuskerBoard, but he can be just as important as an offensive player or a regular poster. 3) Limited appearance - The punter is only needed on 4th downs, so they normally only play 5 - 10 downs a game. I would therefore assume the best choice for HuskerBoard punter is one who isn't a super-prolific poster and is only used when it's necessary! Please nominate or second ONE person per thread.

knapplc Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 Not endorsing anyone with this statement, but I agree that there are people who are very deserving who are not going to get spots. There are only 36 spots on the team, and we're going to short-change some guys/gals who deserve to be recognized. It's inevitable. Teaser - we're doing something next year to try to address this. And it may be kind of fun. We'll see. Don't get your hopes up. Link to comment
