What is the maximum horizontal distance the punt


The National Football League is holding Superbowl 45 in the Dallas Cowboy stadium. One concern is the possibility of kickoffs or punts striking the video center that hangs from the roof. A quote from an architectural press release on the new stadium is as follows.

"Hanging approximately 90 feet above the field from the roof structure, the innovative video center spans between the 20-yard lines and features four individual boards - two facing the sidelines and two facing the end zones."

The maximum distance a projectile travels over horizontal ground, neglecting air resistance, is obtained if the initial projectile velocity is at 45° to the horizontal. Assuming punt is made at a 45° angle and just misses the video board, what is the maximum horizontal distance the punt will travel.
