Illinois’ veteran Aussie punter Hugh Robertson is a hidden field-position weapon
In the 2024 season, Robertson gave Illinois steady, older-veteran reliability at punter, averaging 42.7 yards on 51 punts and placing 59.2% of them inside the 20, a pace that would challenge the school record.[1] His value goes beyond the box score: he also handled hold duties on key field goals, showed year-over-year improvement, and brings uncommon maturity as one of the oldest players in college football.[1] If your team wants a punter who can flip the field and stay composed in high-leverage moments, he fits that profile well.[1]
