Count 'Bility Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I heard on the tv yesterday that Alex is NOT a finalist for the Groza award, naming the country's best kicker. This was "absurd" according to Ed Cunningham. I dont understand, no matter what you wanna go by, Alex is the BEST. Accuracy, check. Distance, check. Percentage, check. Hell, not only the Groza, but he should get the Guy too, he's also the best punter. It's a joke. 1 Quote Link to comment
HuskerfaninOkieland Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I agree. It's absurd he wasn't named a finalist. He's probably the best kicker in NU's history and most likely one of the best in FBS history. Quote Link to comment

kansas husker Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 The only reason I can think of is that he has only made 16 field goals this year. The low number has to be the only thing keeping him out of the discussion. Keep in mind with the Groza they do not look at a career body of work, just a seasons. I'm not saying I agree with it just trying to look at the other side of things. My personal opinnion is the same as yours Alex is the most accurate kicker in NCAA history, and him being left of the list is a discrace and the committe that makes these decisions should be ashamed.

schuhbdoo Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Ed Cunningham says yesterday that it was a shame that he wasn't on this list. Probably the best kicker in NCAA history. I don't know for sure but that is a pretty huge compliment from a guy that isn't a NU homer. Franklin pretty much agreed with him. Most NU fans had the TV on mute and prolly didn't hear those kind words. Congrats Alex. You will be rich very soon. 2nd round pick for sure. Quote Link to comment

ICT HSKR 10 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 According to NU's athletic website, Henery is now tied for most career kicking points at 388. He needed 9 Friday to tie and got exactly that (1 FG, 6 XP). His next point Saturday will put him alone at the top. Phenomenal career and we're damn lucky to have him! Quote Link to comment
