Hypothetical Scenario...

It's 4th and 11, Team X is punting the ball away to us with 10 seconds left in the game.

Who do you have returning the kick?

This is a tough choice, but I have to go with Desmond barely over Woodson!

Woodson's Punt Return Abilities:




Desmond's Punt Return Abilities:




Breaston's Punt Return Abilities:




AC's Punt Return Abilities:

Punt returns? Desmond all day.

I must agree, Desmond.

Desmond, he was so explosive, would get to full acceleration in an instant.

Awfully tough choice----situational, I guess I'd have to say. But when you said "go-to", I assume you meant in a game-on-the-line, do-or-die situation. My vote went to Charles...simply because I can't forget his
invaluable contributions, receiving and running-after-catch, in that
killer drive to seal the deal (using all but 29 of the last 445 seconds)
in the Rose Bowl over Wazzu for our NC.

And, of course, the way he took over the OSU game (which we were lucky to win, 20-14) with the two receptions that led to our first TD, and punt return for the second.

But as I say, I'll MORE than make do with Desmond, AC or Breaston in many, many cases, too.
