Freshman punters aren't usually celebrities, much less less recognized, on college campuses.
This campus hasn't seen a freshman punter like JK Scott, though.
Quickly becoming one of the nation's best punters - and one of Alabama's most valuable players - Scott has picked up a sliver of fame for the work he's done in Year 1.
"It's been great, the Alabama fans are great," Scott said after Alabama's SEC Championship victory in his first interview since enrolling at UA. "Every time I see one in public and they recognize me they'll say 'good job.' There's been good feedback.
"I think it has been a good year."
That it has.
Scott, a Denver native, ranks third nationally in punting average (47 yards per punt). Only one other freshman ranks among the top 50. Of his 48 punts, only 10 were returned for a total of 73 yards. It's just one year, but the early returns have him on pace to dominate the school's punting records.
Of his 48 kicks, 18 have traveled at least 50 yards. Twenty-six have been pinned inside the 20 yard line, almost doubling the output of a productive Cody Mandell in 2013.
