There were two problems with him ... he dropped two sure big yardage catches and then he was lazy running routes. Twice he was open and the QB put the ball where he should have been and he didn't get to the ball.
The worst part is the dad isn't even really part of the coaching staff, just one of those dads that shows up at every practice and constantly talks to the coaches. He stands on the sidelines during the games also. He had been in the Special Teams coach's ear about playing his kid at PR. Nate went to the head coach this week and said he understood they had to play him in different spots on offense but why wasn't he punt returning?
He is second all-time in Bullitt East history in PR yards and 1 TD shy of tying the PR record. I seriously doubt he will miss another PR this year after last night.
For anyone who has followed this thread the one thing Nate does week in and week out is make big kick and punt returns.
Claine had the big momentum changing play this week though, after Nate had done it 3 weeks in a row. They had the ball with 2 minutes left in the 1/2 and up 21-7. Claine picked the ball off at the 50 and ran it back to the 20. They next play was a sweep to Nate for a TD.
Two weeks in a row Nate has found the endzone twice. I think he now has 7 TD's on the year.
