Open tryouts for place kickers

Sadly, I have used up my NCAA eligibility. But for others…HERE’S YOUR CHANCE!!

Also, is this a normal thing or should we be concerned about our kicking game? Well, more than we already are…

I’ve heard that it’s just to find a backup kicker.

Didn’t we go through this 2 years ago and we decided on Gus The Kicking Mule. Is he out of eligibility?

Can’t we poach a soccer player or get a paramilitary team to find an Australian or two?

Don’t think you want an Australian place kicker

One of the things I like about this board is there are people of a certain vintage who get this reference.

Virtually every program in CFB does these every year, for multiple position groups. I’m sure kicking is done on its own because it’s such a different animal than other positions.
