For anyone who ever said kickers aren't real football players, William Will (awesome name; also a sentence) of the Dayton Flyers has a nonverbal message for you:

Yes, the 6-foot, 190-pound redshirt sophomore from Chicagoland returned the fumbling of his own kickoff 26 yards to put the Flyers up 28-14 on Marist in the second quarter. Dayton went on to win 31-21, with Will adding a 25-yard field goal with 6:54 left to keep the Red Foxes (awesome name; also a comedian) at a safe distance.
