According to NCAA records*

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NC...ff_returns

The record for CARRER kickoff returns for TD in FBS is 7. He already has 5 and if not for a hold would have had 6.

The single season record for return average 40.1 Pollard is average 41.1 after the Tulsa game.

* have not seen the actual NCAA.ORG page to verify these list of records.

Dude is a stud.
First team all-American good, for sure.

So fast it looks easy. The best ones always are

cmt · 11-04-2017 11:02 PM

If not for holds he'd have 8.
He's GOOD!
I've wondered if Norvell hasn't picked up a trick or 2 about returns though. I wonder if he's had the same type success at previous jobs?

He is great at finding the right crack at the first layer and then making one cut and taking off. His ability to cut without losing speed is what really sets him apart with kick returns. He also has great balance.

My sources say the Dude will play on Sundays. Return man, running back or receiver. Will be drafted by round 4 as a returner.

Gifted. Unselfish. BACKbreaker. A pleasant surprise. In one word....WOW!!!

holyterror · 11-05-2017 10:34 AM

I read somewhere where Novell said Pollard's returning skill is instinctive. Zig to where your gut tells you the seam will be.

macgar32 · 11-05-2017 11:36 AM

Pollard is fast and talented...But the numbers he is putting up are team numbers from good coaching...

He is running through some big lanes.

Talent trumps coaching.

**mempho_to_diego** · 11-05-2017 04:06 PM

Said it last year, Pollard is friggn' crazy good. I honestly believe he will be playing on Sundays ... dude is a weapon indeed.

TiminMem23 · 11-05-2017 04:21 PM

Dat boy good. May even end up being better than the Ant Man when all is said and done.

bubbapt · 11-05-2017 05:49 PM

The two best return seasons in Tiger history, I would guess.

memphistiger89 · 11-05-2017 06:03 PM

It's hard to believe Memphis went over a decade without a kick return for a TD. It's kind of nice knowing every time this dude fields the ball, he has a chance to take it to the house.

Mimi · 11-05-2017 06:42 PM

Two decades.

And that one would have been called back if they had replay back then.

Tiger87 · 11-06-2017 12:06 PM

He is good. Part of it is coaching - no doubt. But most of it is Pollard. You can see it in his open field work at WR too. He wastes no time moving up field. He is confident and instinctive. He hardly ever guesses wrong on lanes, angles, and which side of the defender to exploit.

When he commits to getting up field, he puts the burners on and goes!

Tiger87 · 11-06-2017 02:15 PM

Yeah. Pop has the potential, but he still dances laterally too much instead of taking those first steps upfield then try to read the lane.
