Ahh... Chad Simpson. He pretty much ended the Louisville game a couple years ago with that kickoff return for a touchdown. He might have even made it across the goal line before he flipped the ball in the air.

I watched the 10 year DVD, and Simpson started flipping the ball at about the 1 and a half yard line.  I had to super slo mo it back and forth, but he definitely had not broken the plain of the endzone.  I remember watching that play live thinking how stupid of a play that was, because even in live motion it looked to be too soon to celebrate. 

Looking for great things out of Aston.

go Bulls!

My seats that year were at that end zone (saw lots of TD's) ... when he did that - I gasped ... shocked the refs didn't review it. Oh well  ;D

Excited about Samuels also.

Go BULLS !!!

My friend with me said right before teh send half, "it would be pretty cool if we return it for a Touchdown right now". To which I replied, "the odds of that happening are slim to.....". And before I could finish the sentence, Chad was off to the races. It was awesome.

That kickoff return was sweeet, also looking for good things from Samuels

I have to think Chad Simpson is kicking himself for leaving the team.  After all the attrition at RB last year - what might have been.

[BullBlood]

huge moment for USF fans (in our brief history).  Wish he would have stuck around.

Will be curious who will be returning KickOffs this season ... but don't expect it to happen that often  ;D
