just use his gut feeling

he uses his gut for risk reward situation. Ray-ray muff was not 100% his fault so I don't blame him for that. Still if you just need someone to catch it - you go with Hunter.

At the ACC Champ game - Dabo had HR in when it was
Dec 4, 2017, 4:10 PM
|

4th and 2 feet. Miami was penalized - so it became 4th and 5-ish. He switched in Ray-Ray and the entire punt team changed.
I concluded from that that he has HR in there with the regular defense when he thinks there's a chance for a fake...but I don't know why that would be. (Possibly, I reached the wrong conclusion...)

Renfrow is on the field during punt safe situations, so Kendall Joseph can stay on the field.

DID YOU NOT READ WHAT I TYPED, VERY BOLDLY. RAY RAY WORE 34 MOST OF THE YEAR. WHEN HE IS IN 21 I SAID VERY CLEARLY HE COULD HAVE DONE IT. THEY HAVE USED BOTH SO I AM GUESSING THEY WILL STICK WITH HUNTER ON PUNT SAFE SINCE IT IS USUALLY FAIR CAUGHT ANYWAY. PLEASE GET THE WAX OUT OF YOUR EYES.

If down/distance/situation suggests fake punt is option, he leaves some defense guys up front to snuff it out, Renfrow to catch the punt. If fake is doubtful, full on punt return is on the field with Ray Ray. RR's muff on first punt was the blocker's fault, not RR's fault. RR's fumble on that pass, however.......

this^^ Renfrow is on the puntsafe team
Dec 4, 2017, 4:18 PM

if they think a fake may be coming. 4th and 1, near midfield, stuff like that.
RayRay is on the regular punt return team, when it's 4th and long.

NO ONE HAS GOTTEN IT ENTIRELY CORRECT YET. TRUE, RENFROW IS IN ON PUNT SAFE. BUT THAT WAS BECAUSE RAY RAY AND JOSEPH HAVE THE SAME NUMBER. GUESS WHEN RAY RAY DOESNT WEAR 34 LIKE HE HAS RECENTLY HE COULD DO PUNT SAFE ALSO. DABO HAS EXPLAINED THIS NUMEROUS TIMES.

Originally Renfrow had to be in on punt safe because RRIII and Joseph had the same number. Even though RR no longer share 34 the punt teams and strategy remain the same. Ray Ray switched numbers so he can play corner if need be with Joseph in the game not for punt coverage situations.

Nah, he flips a coin and the winner has to defer to the next punt. Y'all guys are making this way to complicated.

It looks to me like when we set up a return we put Ray Ray
Dec 4, 2017, 4:45 PM

back there. When we are backed up and going to fair catch it we go with the sure-handed Hunter.

If it's our 40 or better, Ray Ray. If it's deeper in our zone, Renfro.

The separate teams are a regular punt return team and a safe punt return team. The safe return is the regular defense, minus a safety, adding in Renfrow as the return man. The regular punt team has McCloud returning. The reason they are different is because, at the start of the year, McCloud and Kendall Joseph wore the same number. To have both of them in (for the safe return) at the same time would be illegal. They have continued to keep Renfrow in during the safe return because they do not have a return set up on those plays...thus, he utilizes a fair catch for 95% of the punts he catches. When we have a chance to return, or when we're in a situation where the opponent is unlikely to fake punt, the more dynamic return man (McCloud) comes in with the regular punt team. Since Ray Ray has kept the number 21 jersey, I'd be curious if there are any changes with those tendencies after the month-long bowl practice.

Seems the coaches have put more thought into this than the average Tigernet poster.
