Donnie Jones is the easy answer & Brad Wing isn’t really even in the discussion.
Maybe y'all could consider Wing if he didn't "opt-out" for the NFL just to go undrafted

In terms of what they did while at LsU. Brad Wing’s 2011 season was the best I have ever seen.

Jerry Stovall has to be on the list.

I don't see how it isn't Donnie Jones, but Chad Kessler was great as well.

This is a hard choice, if you’re talking about just at LSU, I’ll go with Brad Wing. If you’re including the pros, nobody touches Donnie Jones.
Donnie Jones was a 4-year player. Yes Wing was an All-American, but so was ZVR (although only Athletic). Frankly, ZVR has a better argument for GOAT punter than Wing and is arguably as good as/better than Jones or Kessler.

I’m pretty sure he was the first player in college football to be called for this cause it was a new rule!

Eddie Ray. Booming punts.

Brad Wing. He had golf clubs for a kicking foot. I watched him warm up one time from the SEZ bleachers. I was amazed at how he could curve the ball on kick and drop it over and over in the sideline hash marks. Then he would drop it inside the 5 with the pointy end kick.
That's the Aussie Rules skills in him. Australians are dominating the punting ranks of NCAA and NFL now for a reason.

Donnie and Brad

If it is close, my vote goes to Brad Wing on the strength of the fake punt against Florida which got called back for his taunting the athletes who couldn't catch him.
Posted on 10/17/22 at 8:19 pm to lsudat10
I will always be partial to Wing. Name another pointer to be called for Taunting?!

I agree with this because ZVR was tasked with kicking a million more pooch punts than the others.
His average suffered from those pooch punts and I can't find any stat that shows his average when he TRIED to punt the ball as far as possible.
ZVR could punt the ball about 30 yards to the 2 yard line almost every frickin time. His ability to pin opponents directly affected our record in 2018 and 2020.

We know. We’ve had 3 Aussie punters.
