Petrino talks about QB/punter combos

The last minute or so of Bobby Petrino's Spring football press conference for the Arkansas Razorbacks. He was asked about Ryan Mallett punting, and talks about some other quarterback/punters that have done so before. QB/punters mentioned: Danny White, Randall Cunningham, King Hill, Dan Pastorini, John Elway, and Pat Sullivan.

some of these guys punted in rare situations (or on trick plays).. but Danny White actually doubled as a full time QB, and full time punter. He was legit, playing two different positions (it seems funny now). I wondered what his contract looked like, was he collecting the equivalent of two paychecks (?) or did the Cowboys reduce his punter pay, and allow him less time working out during that week @ that position..

Bob Griese used to be the kicker and the punter for Purdue. There were games when he scored all the points of his team.

Dave Lewis was an All Pro punter for the Bengals, and their back up quarterback.
