Since we often overlook some things....all credit is due for his great punting skills.

this list is ranked by total punting yards. not a good list to be on as it implies your team stinks and punts more often. the top ten teams only have about 10 wins total between them. a better ranking is for net or average punting distance, but never for total yards.

I show North Texas overall as 5th nationally in raw punting yardage - this doesn't account for other teams using multiple punters, but it should be close enough to compare. The same stat sheet shows:

* Tied for 2nd in touchbacks with 5

* 59th in punting average at 41.4

* 15th in punts per game at 6.3

* 93th in net punting average with 33.97

Will is doing a fine job...only problem is that Will is getting too much playing time!

If you are a fan of watching good punting, Fouts is the place to be.

Will's grandfather sat behind our group at the Rice game and it was a pleasure to get to talk to him (and high 5 with him) during the game. For certain, he was real proud of his grandson as he should be.

GMG!

If your a punter and want to get the NFL notice you, come to NT. 

Serious question....can he kick field goals? I wonder if he can use his skills for FG's.

[greenjoe]

Why do punters tend to be kickoff players as well ? Yet, not so much as field goal kickers ?

Funny enough, I asked the great Brad Kadlubar that very same question back in the day. He said that the reason is that there are two very different mechanics. Not to say that a punter COULDN'T be a good kicker. Just that people usually focus on building different mechanics and timing.

Yes but the current staff won't let him for some reason?

Will is currently tied for 51st nationally with a very good average of 42.5 yards per punt.
