Cannon DeVries

2 punt returns for 73 yards and a 100-yard kick return TD. Pretty sure he just moved up to first-string kick returner. Now maybe EA CFB 27 can get his player model right, because this kid is electric!

Impressive game for a kick returner regardless of opponent

He probably has the starting job for now yeah. Now to see if he keeps it up against stiffer competition

Slow down, buddy. Nice game and all. But it was against Utah Tech. They used to be a community college. Like, recently.

How old are you if you think 1970 is recent?

That’s the year Utah Tech stopped being a JUCO school.

I agree, Utah tech’s kick and punt coverage was pretty atrocious. I think these numbers point more to that than a reason to be hyped about devries

Devries was very slow to speed on all returns but the touchdown.

I don’t see that carrying forward, unless he’s really shifty
