That's true, but with Sultan's speed, he could make an excellent gunner on punts. I would like to see him get a chance to return some kicks, just to see what he can do, but I doubt he would be any better than Morton or Thrash. It's just frustrating to know that a guy has so much talent, but didn't really get many opportunities to prove himself last year. His wrist injury held him back a bit, but from what I've heard, he was a victim of front office politics as much as anything else. Apparently, McCullough was Cerrato's baby, and after Cerrato/Snyder overruled Spurrier on Wuerffel, Spurrier decided he'd just sit McCullough and see what Cerrato thought of that.
