He's good from 60 in some of those 50 and 55 yd kicks. Big leg.

20th Chris Sailer kicker in the country is far from elite, but I’m sure a year at LSU with Cade has helped tremendously.

Consider the source, but Moscona said when he was out there watching them, Ramos had by far the biggest leg. Wasn’t close. Couldn’t tell how accurate he was, though. Even if he has been in practice, like mentioned several times earlier, it’s a lot different kicking in a close road SEC game under the lights. Let’s hope his balls match his leg. We’ll definitely see.

I don't remember him committing to the Tigers and I follow recruiting. I guess not good enough.

It wasn't that we couldn't kick deep, Cameron Gamble could boot the shite out of the ball. Miles kept asking him to kick to the corner so we could try to pin them deep. The issue is that our guy (or any kicker ever lol) wasn't good enough to put it in the corner without kicking it out of bounds.


I knew it was something dumb.

Probably a preferred walk-on.

I met him in person when he was at LSU. He was little and black. Hence, a little black kid.

Kicker rankings are a crapshoot, I think Culp was rated higher than York.

Only one higher than York was Bama’s kicker…Saban made him quit though.

I agree that they put too much emphasis on kickoffs. Dibert ended #2 because he can kickoff 80 yds. High school stats should matter, miss/make percent 45+ over all of your camps should matter.

What was Dilberts highschool fg% 45+? Any idea? These college scouts think they can just get a big leg and fix the mechanics to make them accurate and alot of times guys just don't end up being able to do both at the same time...

He looks like he should be playing in the Little League World Series on TV right now.

Honestly don’t know. Dibert was 7 for 12 for FGs his senior year. He kicked accurately at some camps though, always kicked off well.

Hopefully in the future they’ll have bigger databases on these kickers. Everyone can get better, but there should be a pretty big dataset for boys moving forward. 3 or 4 camps a year for your ranking service…
