ZipAnalyst Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 The Zips have a dire kicking deficiency. It was a factor in the CMU game. It could be the difference between winning and losing on Saturday. I think Brookhard understands this and has worked overtime this week to solve this problem.Do you agree or disagree? Why?

AZipsCrazy Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 I think we'll beat hem by more than a TD... so I don't think it will come to this. BUT I also heard Igor Iveljic is practicing and if that's true I'm not too worried about our kicking game. Otherwise Domonkos better have been working his ass off this week to get ready and I'm sure he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Zip Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 I only hope the players aren't taking Can't as light as some of the fans on this board. Historically this team can lose to anyone -- look at last year for examples -- Army (c'mon). This team was flat in the second half last week and if they carry this over to this week -- it could be the kicking game that cause another loss.

Sergeant Zip Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 i say give him some drugs and put him in. cant do any worse then we already are. If you do do that, I recommend that you make sure he is not taking any supplements that may react with the pain killers and cause an allergic reaction. Also do not let him take 35 pills at once people may assume he tried suicide, oh wait, the pills were just in the drawer and the publicist didn't know that.

Buckzip Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Even if Igor is ready to play, he is a true freshman that hasn't practiced at all.It will take him a few weeks to get back into a groove. Even then, he is still a true freshman, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FearTheRoo Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 What about sophomore Andy Hildreth?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoZips88 Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Even if Igor is ready to play, he is a true freshman that hasn't practiced at all.It will take him a few weeks to get back into a groove. Even then, he is still a true freshman, I'd still like to think he can at LEAST make an extra point or two and come a little closer (actually make them?) on the shorter field goal attempts!? Give me a rusty Igor ... after 4 games I've seen enough and I'm ready to try something else for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kangaroo Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 What about sophomore Andy Hildreth?? He's a punter. And if you saw him punt in the spring game...holy moley.We're screwed at PK unless Igor heals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckzip Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 I can't ever remember a time in Zips football when we have had this bad of a kicker.We have always had pretty good kickers. I was never nervous about XP or short field goals before.Heckman, Alcorn, Klaus, just off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RACER Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 i just don't understand how you an miss extra points/short fg goals,get kicks/punts blocked. unless there are some snap/hold problems we are not aware of? there are plenty of kids in high school who can make extra points /short fg golas,but we can't find anyone who can? since we have had such good kickers in the past maybe the staff thought this year would be no different? i am not trying to pile on the coaches just wondering if they put all are hopes on one guy/then he got hurt.
