Could a player(kicker) transfer in or enroll early from high school and play(kick) in the playoffs and redshirt? Asking for a friend.

Don’t think so. Classes for the Spring Semester don’t start until after the NC game. So a player wouldn’t even really join the team until spring practice.

Everyone sez it's easy for a Kicker to not have his head in the game...

WHY...

They have one job, and that's to trot out and kick when needed.
Pretty simple if they follow their training.

8 missed Extra Points in one season has to be an NCAA record...:rolleyes:
Not sure if it is a record or not, but it is historically bad. The misses on FGs and extra points have had so many causes that it comes down to special teams preparation. Bad snaps, bad holds, bad blocking, low kicks which were blocked, and just plain terrible kicks. And that doesn't even touch on the punting issues.

You guys can cover kicks and return kicks with anyone - but if you have to actually kick, this is about as bad as any team has ever been. So all of your specialists (long snapper, holders, kickers and punters) are terrible. 11 weeks into the season - still terrible? One or two guys not playing up to their potential could be a player issues, but EVERY specialist? Some blame lands with them, but much lands with Banks. Maybe he didn't recruit these guys, but he certainly isn't making them better.

I will say again, we need to go for 2 on every TD, convert half and we are better off than kicking extra pts. This offense could convert 60% and that would be better than missing 1 kick.

The most obvious post of the season: We just have to hope and pray that it doesn`t come down to a kick in one of the remaining games.

If winning a game comes down to a field goal or extra point Bama is screwed! No field goal attempts either punt or go for it on fourth down …. No extra point attempts go for two every time!

Good thing you guys are winning by 24+ per game.
