At some point a player must make a play. <I do think the title of this post pretty much sucks> I'm sure this kicker/kid is probably thinking he did pretty much suck in that game he doesn't need to publicly diminished. I'm sure he is trying to look his teammates in the eye and walk around campus so...public shaming although very popular in this day and age.. is too much especially from adult alumni or adult fans. Bausfkid--Good point on your "confidence" comment and "make a play". The kicker is expected to be very proficient and hone his skill level at each practice. Agreed that part of the game plan obviously included the kicker adding some points. CSS and company must have had some confidence in the guy to give him the nod to go make his kicks. The 50 yarder? Maybe a stretch for him but go try it you were making them in practice kind of logic. You miss it, ok but now he has had a game time try get ready for the next one. I see the logic. But it does come back to..why the choking? The kicker is the kicker. He isn't relied on to play O or D. Just kick the ball and...4 tries?? make at least 50%. The diff in the game... Water under the bridge at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
