Taking a look at one major issue for Syracuse football going on more than a decade now...
Syracuse Orange special teams have been.. .less-than-special in recent years. A decade, really, when you think about it.
And while we'll get to previewing the entire 2015 special teams unit next week, it's worth digging into one topic a bit further beforehand: the issue of punt returns.
Syracuse hasn't returned a punt for a touchdown since 2004 (Anthony Smith), and Smith was really more of a great defender and expert special teams guy who just had a nose for the ball.
