Tigerdog 0 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 Zach Kutch - Rivals Scout.com Do we need to waste a scholly on this guy? Guess CTT feels good about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupperClub 0 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 If CTT likes him, that's good enough for me. Overall, I'd say he has been a pretty good judge of talent. Besides, we could use a solid, consistent kicker. Hopefully this guy fits the mold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnTigers24 0 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 good news. both our kickers have been inconsistent, so hopefully this guy will turn it around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinook 0 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 tigerdawg, why not to give this guy a "scholly"? is there some other punter/kicker better available? if so, how about making a comparison before short changing the guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerI 0 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 When are we going to get a commitment from a stud running back? It would be nice if we could get Antone Smith, I heard that Miami was in the lead, but it would be nice if we could steal him from the canes.

Guess CTT feels good about him. 132479[/snapback] Tigerdog, I know you probably didn't mean this the way it comes off, but let's not talk about players who choose to come to Auburn and say things like "waste a scholly" on them. That doesn't sound right and certain isn't going to endear us to any potential recruits that may run across Auburn boards to get a feel for our fan base.

Wishbone 0 Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 Kicker is one of the most important positions on the team. Besides your 2 leaders/captains on offense and defense, I would say kicker in next important. It just isn't a very glamorous position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proud Tiger 4,261 Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 In his senior year the kid was 100% on his FGs inside 49 yards and had a 43.5 punting average. Know a better kicker somewhere? A guy who has coached him says he id=s a great athlete and a good kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auburn85 432 Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 On kickoffs, he consistantly kicks in the endone or for touchbacks. He kicked 2 tonight in the local all star game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this kid wants to come to AU, and the coaches want him, good for him. They obviously see something good in him. And if it's a question of the NR, don't worry about that...had he gone to Bamar he would've been a 5 Star!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shug2003 1 Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 Well, as John Wayne would say, I'm ready for the BIG DOGS to do some walking! There are too many of the BIG DOGS who seem to be waiting too long for committing to a program that has obviously found its way into the BIG time again. WDE!

But seriously, kickers are a very important part of a good team. Close games are won and lost by the kickers, in my opinion. One point here - one point there makes all the difference in an undefeated season and maybe not even making it to the championship game. If the kid can kick, give him a scholarship. And an Escalade.
