Hey if you're going to have an Aussie on the team, why not have a rugby punt in your arsenal?
I love the way they can move toward the line and if no one is covering run the ball and otherwise boot it away.
Accurate kick, difficult to field off the bounce.
C'mon Kyle, give Gleeson a shot at it!
 
What the hell, give it a shot. Test it out during the first few games, see what happens.

If he runs for a first down against someone like Norfolk, at least Wash St. and State Penn will need to think about the possibility of it happening again.
 
The reason you don't see much is because they changed the rule in 2009 where punters are no longer protected from running into the kicker outside the tackle box. So they no long can be aggressive as in the past. It is a great way to get your punter hurt.
