The Iowa punter discusses his craft. He has two things in mind for every punt and, believe it or not, it's not an 80-yard thunder boomer. He wants to put everything inside the opponent's 20 and he wants 4.5 seconds of hang time. Remember, this is the man who's responsible for the invisible yards that can sometimes win games.
Iowa punter Ryan Donahue has put nine of his 14 punts inside the opponent's 20-yard line this season. He's had six punts of more than 50 yards. Only four of his punts have been returned for a grand total of 5 yards. (Gazette file)
