Not sure what the hell 5 stars is supposed to mean for a kicker, but #2 kicker in the country is a pretty good ranking.

I'm not sure why the services don't just fricken rate kickers. They are almost as important as every position on the field.. unless you are the Oregon Ducks ;)

 

Yes, I'm being serious.

Bc kickers don't sell subscriptions and are hard to rate.
Made 20/25 fgs. 1 from 49. He's a 4 star. Boom.

So what does 19/27 get you?

3 star, unless all misses were 40+
What about when you figure in distances, blocks, get off times, height of kick, and conditions? What about a good kicker that doesn't have to kick many FGS bc they have great offenses. Bad hold, etc, etc

So how about the services watch their highlight film and make those decisions? Good grief. We are talking about watching 20fg attempts and 15 kickoffs maybe?

Resources man? Then you would have to rate kickers, long snappers, punters, and kick off specialists. Then why not start ranking kick and punt returners too. Lot of time evaluating 1000's of kids around the country to find a couple of kids that could be rated. They focus on the impact positions. They miss enough on those already

Here's the article about that. We've had a lot of great kickers over the years. Barret may be the most highly ranked one coming out of high school. :thumbs:

I think Jordan Congdon was rated as the #1 kicker in the country when we got him and Mauro Bondi was pretty high too but I don't think as high. I'm actually embarrassed by my kicker recruit knowledge so I'm going to stop now.
