Berrios is very solid sometimes I wish he was more aggressive but certainly is safe and sure handed on punts Jeff Thomas should be returning kicks how ever
Athlon gave us 5 on the first team all ACC, including Walton, Herndon and Richards. More generous than most publication
Hi guys, just in case ya'll forgot who we are...

LOL at not dropping the punt being "good enough"
How many punts are being returned for touchdowns though?
6 players returned more than one punt for a TD last season.
Berrios doesn't fumble, doesn't lose yardage, occasionally makes a big play. He's good enough imo.
If we don't have the players that are threatening to take it to the house every time they touch the ball, then this would be fine. But if Jeff Thomas can be 3/4th's of the player that HoF'er Devin Hester is, then he should take punts instead.

Canes fans say that every year.
You want to hear a fun stat. There literally isn't a single NFL player in the world who is 3/4 of what Hester is.
NFL ALL TIME SPECIAL TEAMS RECORD

We should definitely be trotting out a true freshmen summer enrollee Jeff Thomas on punt return week 3 in Doak Stadium during his first away rivalry game when we have the 12th best returner on the bench. What could go wrong?
As a freshman in just his second game for the Hurricanes, against rival Florida, Hester took the opening kickoff 98 yards to the house. He finished his college career ('03-05) averaging 25.5 yards per kickoff return and 15.6 per punt return, with six return touchdowns.

I meant as a college special teams returner. Having a knack for making a huge return at the biggest moments possible.
We all know how great Hester is, but don't use stats to make a case of how great he is. Because with that benchmark...
Duke Johnson owns the Miami Record for KR yards on a Career. He averaged 34.4 Yards per KR on 41 returns, while Hester averaged 25.4 (almost a full 10 yards less) on 40 returns.

No...they gave us 3, and 2 for special teams. Disrespected our defense by placing exactly 0 on the first team defense.
It was sarcasm on the heavy South Florida bias on this board. Did you know that a 4.41 forty in South Florida is actually faster than a 4.41 forty in North Carolina?
Honestly, Berrios is solid as ****, but he ain't a freak and hasn't changed a game from that spot. However, he hasn't lost a game either. With our defense, we can be a little bit conservative in this aspect of the game against FSU and like teams, and we can break in Jeff/others in the scrub games. JT/other can run the show in 2018.
