Why is Ray Ray Still Returning Punts?

I do not understand why we continue to let Ray Ray return punts. He has had too many muffs and bone headed plays, and hasn't corrected the issue. Luckily against Wake Forest, he recovered his first muff. He wasn't so lucky the second time around and that swung the momentum to Wake Forest in a big way. I think that the defense pitches a shut out if Ray Ray doesn't drop that punt.
Scott did a decent job last year, and I would love to see Feaster back there. Anyone is better than Ray Ray at this point. Other than that punt that he returned to the "house" (half inch yard line) against Troy, he seems too slow and non-committal back there.

I would hope and assume that Tay, or Hunter, will field the punts from here on out. There is no logic in RM3 to field another punt this year. Kid seems to have all the talent, but has struggled mightily with drops and fielding punts - especially the 2nd half of this season.

Hunter dropped one in the FSU game last year.....
Sure handed Adam Humphries dropped TWO against Scar in 2013 that cost us the game....
The white boy with great hands can have a miscue just as easy.

IMO - Our ST guys just don't seem to be able to block well enough to allow any punt to actually be returned - no matter who is back there to catch it. RRM definitely has been given enough opportunities and has failed too often to continue allowing him to be back there. Let someone else try IMO.
Anyway - we never return punts for more than 3-5 yards. Maybe 1-2 times all year. THAT sucks it IMO. We need to fix THAT problem, and good things will happen. Anyone have ideas why our coaches don't seem to recognize that problem, or are able to correct it? I'm listening. 
Hint: watch OTHER teams and how they manage to do it. Watch and learn. Sheesh.

Dabo just being stubborn...

No other way to explain it. Ray-Ray is a liability on every punt and has proven it time and time again. It's actually extremely annoying that Dabo in so insistent on sticking with him... WHY?
