Kicking problems solved?

Offense/Defense 1st String

Spring depth charts mean very little.

I'm just happy that we have enough players to have a lineup.

[Blue & Gold]

Considering our lack of depth at RB, I keep thinking that Rossi has a legitimate chance of coming in & starting @ RB as a true frosh. A hard-nosed, 6-0, 230 RB might look real nice lined up in the backfield.

Kicking problems solved?

I sure hope so, although I'm pretty sure he won't be able to run full speed at the ball for 12 yards and kick it.

I truly beleive that most D1 kickers look good like that with no rush and all the time needed to set up.

Doing this under a rush and game pressure is a tad different.

It's sort of like saying you are a great hitter because you can hit the ball in batting practice.

I hope he's awesome so I can hold up my sign on the rise that reads:

I'd have to agree.

When you have only 120 D-1A schools, and maybe only a couple dozen open kicking jobs every year, I would think that the candidates for those jobs would all be able to stand out on a practice field and boot field goals all day long.

Igor was the #5 rated high school kicker in the entire USA, and made 16-19 his Freshman year at UA...then he opted for that Rick Ankiel foot surgery, and it all went to hell....bet he regrets it.

Igor was highly ranked. I remember that too. What a huge letdown.

[Hilltopper]

I like how fast the ball gets airborne. Not kicking the ball into the butts of the O-lineman is good.

[a-zip]

He is kicking off a block.......hopefully he can kick of the ground.
