They've used it 3 times under him and it's worked twice. He didn't say whether Daniels was trying to hit the defender, but you'd have to believe that is an outcome that they desired.

How precise could a quick-kick punt be developed?

Even punters don't have accuracy to hit a specific spot

I posted something similar yesterday. The hiccup here is the receiver would

Exactly, if receiver turns head early, so will defender. If a defender realizes

Think of all the punters who kick it accidentally into the endzone

Punters who do it all day ever day

like I said, he isn't aiming for the defender. That's the receiver's job.

Yeah the hope with a quick kick is that you pin the other team deep because they

Not only that, but they had to rely on #0 completely flubbing up the recovery

I certainly think Kansas was trying to do what they did and they hoped it would

I don't think they were seriously trying to bounce it off our dude. I think they

I think they were trying to catch us off guard and pin us deep

I don't think he specified success as hitting an unsuspecting defender

He said it went in their favor once before and once not.

Blue for Life

He didn't specify. Success could be pinning deep.

Sure, you “try” but you don’t expect it to happen. It’s a low risk, high reward

I think we were ill-prepared for it. Once it was a kick, someone needed to yell

It was 4th down at LES. It was loud.

Not after he kicked it.

Didn't have to have it hit him in the head, but getting it dangerously close...

When Collie said it was game planned, he didn't mean that the punt was expected

Umm it would be hard to hit someone in the head from that far throwing it.

Helps that it was unexpected, and it was also lucky. That play could happen on

Not sure it was unexpected. I told my bro during the TO that I would pooch punt

RGGeemer

It’s an incredibly dangerous play for the defense especially in man D. The CBs
