Kiffen saved us a few times by diving at the returner's feet. I held breath each time hoping he didn't get hurt. Mainly becuase (last year) Christensen (think that's how u spell it) gave me heartburn when his kicks left the ground you didn't know if they were gonna wobble left, right or short.
Foster is like a video game built kicker. I've NEVER seen anything like it. IF, he is as accurate as Kiffen and a little more powerful, he will be the BEST kicker we ever had at BAMA. Kiffen wasn't raved about coming out of high school like Foster. I am not sure Kiffen has ANY state or high school records either.
Completion percentage for a kicker is just as important as a passing qb's. If not more!
Re: K Cade Foster sets Texas HS extra point record
Not to be overly negative but hitting 234 out of 243 attempts means that he is hitting PATs 96% of the time. I hope he will have a better % at Alabama...it's an extra point for goodness sakes!!!
Re: K Cade Foster sets Texas HS extra point record
Considering that this is high school and he's learning the trade, his percentage for his senior season would probably be a better indicator than his four year average on extra points.

It's high school and there could be 4% worth of bad snaps/bad holds. It can't be laid at Foster's foot (pun intended) without knowing the particulars.

Re: K Cade Foster sets Texas HS extra point record
When Kiffin, uh, I mean when Tiffin broke the points record yesterday, I started thinking about Foster. I hope Foster breaks our PAT record, but I hope he doesn't have to kick many field goals during his stay in T-town. With another year of top notch recruiting, training, and coaching, we should be ready to start rolling up some points next year.
