Better punt returner IMO. Kickoff is more about angles, vision, and speed.

Kick returners are more like running backs and need to read blockers and find running lanes, then have the speed to get away.

Tayvion seems to be great in the open field, and improvising making guys miss 1:1. He was sensational as a punt returner in 2019. Beamerball level good. He needs to get back to that.

Good stuff, thanks Brandon! Q: WRT your comment on T. Robinson... -- MDHokie79 04/13/2021 11:24AM

Did the staff ever try him on kickoffs? He can make tacklers miss. ** -- TomTurkey 04/13/2021 11:41AM

He probably would be OK on kickoffs, jus doesn't have speed to be great ** -- icelus 04/13/2021 8:35PM

He was a cut above until he began to miscue ** -- TomTurkey 04/13/2021 3:22PM

He got taken off PR because he kept muffing them ** -- soflahokie 04/13/2021 11:24AM

See the Liberty game (ducks)* ** -- sacramento hokie 04/13/2021 4:49PM

That was the dagger ** -- VaTechHokiesACC 04/13/2021 7:37PM

Sophomore slump. Betting he'll be back to form this coming season. ** -- VTizzle 04/13/2021 2:37PM

Ah yes, guess I blocked that memory out! Thanks Sofla ** -- MDHokie79 04/13/2021 11:26AM

We hope he does too; it was mental...he was very good at PR as a FR ** -- hokiepro 04/13/2021 1:15PM
