Do we have any guys with that breakaway, burner speed coming in this recruiting class? Or that redshirted, I have heard Jojo is supposed to be pretty quick but is their anyone else?

Dalton and Pulley are fast.    There's nobody that would
catch Bo Jackson of 1985.   I hope we have several who could
catch Bo of 2015

Did either of those guys do any kick or punt returns? They are both in the secondary right?

I just haven't seen any 40 times listed on our commitment list, I thought that was usually included with their measurables.
Any idea of rawleigh williams 40?

Secondary players, correct. 

I am one hoping to see Pulley be a standout at special teams, that is merely hope with no foundation.

Watching Pulley's video, he looks like he could be a candidate for returns.  Not sure, though.

Deon Stewart is a name to remember for punt and kick returns in the future.

Here is a name that was talked about quite a bit CBB's first year. Eric Hawkins. I remember CBB saying he was the fastest on the team and they had to find a way to get him involved. Haven't heard about him since then.

Yea I just know we are in need of someone, anyone to fill that roll as a speedster. Before the past 2 years I can't remember not having at least a few guys that could take it to the house on any given play.

I think punt return duties might be filled.  Jared Cornelious did great back there toward the end of the year.

Need to get some of these young receivers to run up and down that hill Korliss ran after practice.

Yup and add JoJo

Would not be surprised to see Hawkins focus on track and be done with football.

Speed is a scarce commodity. It is one of the first indicators that your team is fading. Depth for special teams reveals team speed. We need a few more that can contribute immediately on special teams to continue building team speed. It appears we are landing them, too, which is nice.
I am a Hog fan. I was long before my name was etched, twice, on the sidewalks on the Hill. I will be long after Sam Pittman and Eric Mussleman are coaches, and Hunter Yuracheck is AD. I am a Hog fan when we win, when we lose and when we don't play. I love hearing the UA band play the National Anthem on game day, but I sing along to the Alma Mater.

Alex Collins looked decent doing KO returns against Texas

Explain the comment about team fading? Do you have a concern about our speed?
