Special Teams Preview
First year special teams coach Charles Bankins helped lead an improved unit that saw ODU finish in the top-10 in kick return defense, while Brad Davis was one of the top kickers in Conference USA.
Davis, fellow freshmen Bailey Cate and Darrell Brown earned Conference USA All-Freshmen Team accolades after stellar seasons.
Davis finished the year 10-of-12 on field goals with a long of 43, and was 45-of-46 on extra points.
Cate averaged 37.8 yards per punt, but had just eight punts returned against him. He had 23 kicks fair caught and 25 inside the 20.
Senior long snapper Reed Buce has handled all punt and kicks snap flawlessly the past two seasons.
Freshman Nick Rice has joined the Monarchs from Plant High School in Tampa, Florida.
