With our recent struggles are we looking at any kickers? The kid from De La Salle looks legit.

Gamble graduates so we free up one of the PK scholarships.

No kickers this year, but we’ve got an offer out to a great kid in class of 2019.

Who is the 2019 kicker that has been offered?

What is your view of McMahon as our ST coach.

PS. My preference would be to try to get Joe Robinson back.

Ty for your input on the kickers Barrister

Culp and Gonsilon both appear to have problems with consistency in their mechanics.

Will Reichard. We got on him early, but the Sooners took note and are needing a kicker in this class , so they have offered him as well.

As far as McMahon, I’m not displeased. Anything is better than what we have now. But just as many OCs will have a strong QB background, I think STCs should have a strong background in understanding the physics and particular mechanical specifics of kicking.

There are several names I would suggest if I was ever asked.... but alas

Both are decent kickers. They need to practice basics. Isn't there a coach there to help them?

I’m no expert, but I did watch all of Live Oak (watson) games this year, and they have a great kicker. Earlier in the year they even had him “punting” using a kicking tee-like a fg, but in leu of a punt. I also saw him legit nail a 48 yarder with 15-20 left over. It hit the track behind goal. He is pretty damn good.

Here is a link to the best high school kicker I've ever seen. I don't think he's had a kickoff returned all year, also punts and kicks FG.

Watched his video. Saw lots of good things, but also some mechanical things that could be better. Did see one or two that went OB on KO. Some good raw talent and a potential D-1 leg. I would not say he is the best I've ever seen, but with some coaching, I could see him having a good college career.
