Stanford foe UNC has prolific punt returner, receiver in Switzer

Posted Dec 29, 2016
Like Christian McCaffrey, the Tar Heels’ Ryan Switzer knows what it feels like to have punting teams deathly afraid of him. The punters aim the ball for the sideline or put extra hang time on their kicks, at the expense of distance. Opponents have been wary of him since his freshman season, when he tied an NCAA record with five punt returns for touchdowns. (San Francisco Gate)
