On scholarship but this Ohio state walk on in his first football game ever made 11/11 extra points and kicked it in the end zone for touchbacks.

It must be nice. LINK

It's been stated ad nauseum that the kickers/punters are instructed to directionally kick and drop balls short to try to pin teams back

From what I have heard from all the sports gurus around the Baton Rouge area, he can kick it through the endzone but BDP and I guess Miles wants him to put it short in hopes of stopping them before the automatic 25 yard line. Frick that. You saw what Wisky did to us and the one time Guice ran it out, I believe he was about 5 to 7 yards deep in the endzone.

They don't want to kick it through the end zone. Miles said on his radio show that kickers were getting better hitting their "marks"

Cameron Gamblle definitely has the leg to put it through the end zone on kick offs.. I seen him do it in the first Wisconsin game in Houston two years ago.

So dumb I actually believe it with this staff I guess the coaching staff feels pinning the opponents at the 35 yd line is winning

Our special teams are just not executing our brilliant scheme.

I can tell you this for a fact... LSU has two kickers on scholarship no less that can routinely put the ball 5+ yards deep in the end zone on a regular basis. It's a coaching decision to kick short and hit "marks".

It worked on the first kickoff last weekend. Where do you idiots come from? I'm beginning to think that tigerdroppings was made up by my wife. She's doing this to screw with me. Are you one of her friends? Is she chicken?

She's not Chicken, but her and Chicken are likely "acquainted".

It's a good idea if you have coverage guys who "want" to be on the kickoff team. Sometimes I wonder if we have that.

With the defense LSU fields. It makes no sense to me at all,to not kick it into or out of the back of the end zone .

Great, it worked one time... if only it didn't backfire constantly since BDP came back.

If you're trying to argue special teams hasn't been a fricking catastrophe since Peveto took over, you are just as delusional as Miles.

Go make some better excuses, retard.
