No Punts Ever

Recently I was watching REAL Sports with Bryant Gumbel and there was a story about a High School football coach from Arkansas who has not Punted the ball since 2009. The Team has won the State Championship the last couple years to boot. The Team also almost always does an onside kick. In the story they annecdoted about the most recent State Championship game where The Team got 28 points before the other team got the ball by scoring on the opening drive and then doing and recovering the ball with three successive onside kicks. The REAL Sports story gets a mathematician involved to give some numbers about how The Coach is actually right and its a great segment. The Team has 11 or 12 different onside kick plays, good stuff.

In a similar but different situation this is a clip of a local news anchor doing the same story, he tries.
