I really think it is an issue with guys trying too hard and hope they settle down with some extra work this off week.
Potential for Minkah returning punts
- Thread starter BamaFanTN
- Start date
Jacobs was my suggestion. I think he would be perfect. Assuming he can field punts
Well he has good hands as evidenced by his receiving skills so maybe and it would be another way to get him involved.
Ain’t gonna happen. Diggs and Ruggs are good enough.

Part of me would like to see Minkah return punts. But the other part of me remembers what happened to Eddie last year. And we don't have another Minkah to take over that role if he gets hurt.
Didn't Ridley return a few punts early in his career? He might be a good one to put back there if Diggs is still out and we can't get the drops cleaned up. I'm also intrigued by the Jacobs suggestion. I'm all for anything that gets the ball in his hands more frequently.

^^^^^^^
This - after Eddie last year not sure if Saban would take that risk again. I do agree Jacobs could be a good option.

This exactly! No minkah that would be devastating if an injury occurred there jmho
I'd be ok with Minkah returning kicks once in a while but don't think he should be the full time guy.
I like Marks and I think with a little more game time he will be fine. Even Diggs has dropped a punt or two this year.
Your are right he does look a little more relaxed. I guess I just hold my breath everytime we receive a punt.
Between Diggs, Ruggs, and Marks, we will be fine. One of them will settle down and get it done. The bye week came at a good time... Roll Tide!!:biga:
I would hope the Eddie Jackson injury last year would make the staff think hard before doing this. His injury hurt more than people realize. In my opinion if he plays against Clemson last season just saying............
Agree. What I'd give to have a specialist like Javier Arenas back there.
I'm not opposed to fair catching every punt if need be.
