Much has been said about the fall from grace of this once lauded unit. Head Coach Chris Ash committed to focusing on special teams play during training camp and having as many players as contribute. Week 1 was a bust, with special teams putting forth the weakest performance of all three units versus Washington.
However, despite their initial poor showing, the last two week’s of special teams play has showed a marked improvement. I may have been too angry to say much about the Scarlet Knights disappointing performance against EMU, but I do remember being at the game and noting that the special teams play had improved from the week before.
