It's nice have a former all state safety as your kicker. He saved a TD against Oklahoma, had the big fumble recovery against Georgia last year and has made a few other tackles on kickoffs the last 2 years. All in addition to booming balls into the endzone consistently...something we used to struggle with. Another good job by Coach O in finding and picking up transfers

The tackle against Oklahoma was fantastic. Not hard to believe he was an all-state safety.

Been awesome, but to your last point he wasn’t a transfer. We got him out of high school.

People forget Avery Atkins was an all-state safety at Auburn HS. His highlight reel is filled with him knocking skulls. However, I'm pretty sure he came here as a freshman and wasn't a transfer.

Said the same thing last year when he dove to the bottom of the pile to recover the fumble against UGA. Said it again on that OU kickoff return. He's a great asset and we've got him two more years

Yep.

Gets another A grade. Thought for sure he was getting tossed for hitting some Auburn kid on the sideline in the 2nd half.
