Look at his report on Special Teams....

Nov 4, 2018, 1:56 PM

...says he was "SHORT". If he was purposely short he wouldn't have said "...and now for the bad".

Should we assume he's a chitty reporter and didn't bother...

Nov 4, 2018, 2:11 PM

...to ask the question in his interviews then made his own assumption and gave a bad grade when he should have given Potter an A++ for doing what the coaches asked him to do?

Watched all the interviews...no evidence of that question being asked.

Could have been off camera.

There were A LOT of potential questions to ask so it seems

Nov 4, 2018, 4:32 PM [ in reply to Should we assume he's a chitty reporter and didn't bother... ]

very possible that BT Potter's kickoffs wouldn't make the cut.

Perfect game to give the coverage team some live practice.

Nov 4, 2018, 2:28 PM

Not saying that’s what happened ... but it makes sense.

I’m sure it’s human nature for the coverage team to get lackadaisical when every kick is a touchback.

Sorry, but they were intensional. Louisville has had problems holding on to the ball on kickoffs, so tigers were trying to create a turnover, plus we need to practice covering ko’s.
