What I didn’t like about Rhule’s words in the press conference - he said there was nothing wrong with the scheme and basically put the failure of our entire special teams unit on our long snapper.
To me - that was garbage. If nothing was wrong with scheme - then foley should have been kept and everything would improve with our long snapper. Screw that - placing the blame solely on that kid is garbage IMO. Was it our long snappers fault every time we fair caught within the 5 yard line? Long snapper’s fault we mishandled the punt return causing us to lose to Iowa.
Some of the punt and field goal blocks when we knew they were sending everyone and had no prayer of getting it off even if the ball came to the punter .1 seconds faster.
Our special teams were a joke and the snapper played a part in that. However - punt return, kick return, punt and fg units were all extremely poor and I’m disappointed Rhule made that kid a scapegoat.
