Honestly my thought as well. Just another sign of how poorly our special teams performed the last few years

I can't imagine ISU pronounced it wrong the entire time... someone should tweet at Kene or the Vikings PR and ask for clarification.
Just little things like a stud kick returner could have altered several games in our favor if we would have utilized him to the fullest.
I would often complain he didn't return more. I think Campbell says no return and that's that sometimes. I just am of the opinion it was too often with someone like Kene back there.
Yeah especially if it's all about margins and flipping the field can be so critical in close games.
Noel started coming along but he should have been let loose earlier too.
Matt has a short leash. Hopefully he lightens up in some ways as he ages with the program. This year will do wonders for his perspective. He now has a litmus for a season with wild expectations. I only see us getting better. Next year might be a step back in some ways but our record wasn't great this year and I could see us out performing in that respect.
Genius NFL scouts tonight--. "Damn, I guess he was a good 4th round pick."
When he was healthy, we had him return kicks, I don't know what else you wanted.
It may have just been easier for him to not correct everybody. I think on Hard Knocks a couple of years ago Tyrod Taylor basically said that everybody is and has been pronouncing his name wrong for basically ever.
