26 Days till Kickoff: Corey Coleman's Program Record 26.04 Yards Per Return
I could have gone with a program punting record today from the NCAA record-holder Daniel Sepulveda, but honestly punting just isn’t as flashy as some other things.
Take kickoff returns for instance. They can change the game in all of 12 seconds. Just ask Tristan Ebner and Iowa State how massive a good return can be in deciding a game.
Today I want to focus on the program record for yards per kickoff return. The record currently sits at 26.04 yards per return and Corey Coleman is the record holder. He barely made the cut with the absolute minimum number of returns to qualify, 25.
Over those 25 returns, he racked up 651 yards and a TD. Derrick McAdoo from the mid-80s teams sits in second at 26.00 YPR over 43 returns. Jerod Douglas from the mid-90s is in third with 25.63 YPR, and Tristan Ebner is at 4th with 25.26 YPR.
