Good leg and extension for an 8th grader. Going to Kohl's is good exposure. Flexibility is key. I used to do yogalates 3 days a week to help.
If he wants to kick in college, I would recommend going from 2" block to 1" by junior year and then kick off the ground (if coach let's him) for senior year.
There's little things you can do at home to get muscle memory like kicking a marked pad against a column, taping a target on the ground to get a consistent plant foot, one step kicks, etc.

He’s never kicked off a 2” block, ever. He’s been kicking off a 1” since he was 9. With an LSU game ball I’m sure he could kick it off nice grass now. He’s not very upright, he’s much more of a set play in soccer style kicker than I see those kickoff guys are. I really don’t know shite about technique or terminology. Dad just drives him to the field and shags balls.
He’s not flexible at all. In slow motion, you see high thigh come up to 90 degrees, but thats it, kind of makes him hop.
He definitely wants to kick in college.
