Punt returning is impossible, because both of the punting team's gunners zip straight to the receiver untouched, giving him no room to move, despite having two blockers assigned to each. I don't see any reason to have made the return game harder, I played countless games (easily a couple hundred) on 2004 with a grand total of maybe ten returns.

In my first game of the season with Illinois vs Florida A & M. I was E.B.Halsey, their running back; and I ran a kick and punt back. But FAMU is terrable and I won 89-0 so I dont feel like I did anything special. Against real teams it is very hard and I have never come close.

as a matter of fact I have ran one back. I was playing against Auburn and they were pinned on their own 4 yd line. i called punt block, and the punter kicked it to about the 40 or so yard line, right on the sidelines. i ran up the middle for a sec, then cut it back towards the sidelines and scored.

Tramain hall is the man for state when it comes to returning punts.

Punt return game was way too easy for me last year. I easily averaged 15-20 yards per return.

Do u have a certain way that you return them?

I had an 80 something yard INT return, WR missed the tackle and my CB had straight wheels.

Furthest punt return - 10 yards MAX
Kick return - 30 yards MAX

It's tough, and my corners don't block on Punt return anyway, not once, not ever.
