Hedley Lamarr Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 He wouldn't be on scholarship would he? Possibly, if we have an extra scholarship which we very well may it would only tie it up for one season. As of now, he has an offer to walk on. Correct you are sir Quote Link to comment

BigRedBuster Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 This may have more to do with Lindsey not working out more than Bondi. If Bondi were to go down with injury next year, we only have one kicker on the team and that's Lindsey. I have absolutely no clue how good he is or if he is even an option. Quote Link to comment
KJ. Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I know a few guys who tried out for the team last semester and both got turned away. Both have 60+ range (indoors) and are pretty accurate inside 50. Probably not Maher-quality, but still damn good kickers. It didn't really sound like they got a very fair tryout, as could be expected when Asshat is in charge. Anyway, the fact that we turned them down tells me the staff is pretty high on at least one of Bondi, Lindsey, or this new transfer. So take that for what it's worth, but if we struggle in the kicking game next year I'm going to be pretty upset with the staff. Quote Link to comment
dylan Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 60+ range and accurate up to 50? Let me know when your friends are kicking in the nfl Quote Link to comment

KJ. Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 60+ range and accurate up to 50? Let me know when your friends are kicking in the nfl That's indoors without a snap/hold, and defense trying to block. I'm pretty sure most NFL/good NCAA kickers can do 70 in that environment. It didn't really sound like they got a very fair tryout, as could be expected when Asshat is in charge. Excuse me? Less commonly known as Jeff Jamrog. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I'm assuming you have personal experience that leaves you with this impression? Quote Link to comment
Amac3309 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Said he is transferring in officially Enrolling in grad school so he doesn't have to sit out, will compete for job Quote Link to comment
QMany Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Sean Callahan @Sean_Callahan Western Illinois kicker Pat Smith just told me he'll be transferring to Nebraska for his senior season. #huskers Sean Callahan @Sean_Callahan Since Smith is enrolling into graduate school, he's eligible to kick immediately, but obviously has to win the job in fall camp. #huskers Dan Hoppen @danhoppen Pat Smith's addition will make the NU kicker battle very interesting. Bondi still the favorite, but Smith should have a real shot.

Lil' Red Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 The kicking competition should be an intriguing off-season storyline. Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 As long as they can make PATs either one will be fine. I don't expect to be kicking many FGs next year. 1 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I just hope it gets off to a better start than last season in both FGs and punting. Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I just hope it gets off to a better start than last season in both FGs and punting. I don't plan on doing much of either next year. We should be a TD machine. Quote Link to comment
