Don't remember seeing him on kickoff returns and I don't think he's carried the ball this year.

He is a tiny kid and isn't a burner...at best a 3rd down back. But Snell has made him dissapear at RB. I don't know why we use Snell on Kickoff return though...that is not his game.

We just have quite a few options at RB at this point. I'd like to see us try and get his hands on the ball in open space a little more, but at this point it's not the offense that's the biggest problem (and it's definitely not the running backs). I would put our RB's up against almost anyone, but our offensive line just continues to be terrible against P5 competition. The few times our RB's have halfway decent holes to run through (like they did tonight) you really get to see what kind of explosiveness they have.

He's doing his job. Be a backup running back. If we have an injury or two, he can spell some the main guys for a couple cries without burning the redshirt of Rose. Have one or two plays drawn up for them.

Not everyone is destined to start. Some are here to play special teams and provide depth.

Yes, Snell looks awkward returning kicks but he runs hard. I thought King looked good returning kicks last year.

He may be small, but I heard he was the fastest player on the team. I would have expected him to return kick-offs.

Competition. Snell is running #2. While I like King at KOR, I think Snell looks solid.

Did you say King is NOT a burner?

I like Badet and King returning kicks.

Badet needs the ball more. Easily our fastest player and is made for kick returns.

Yep absolutely thos 2 should be our returners.
LOL at dude saying King doesnt have break away speed. He was only 1st team all american coming out of highschool! You must of never watched his film. He is fast as hell and is a burner. Another dumb coaching decision not using iur weapons that we have.
