Brent Cimaglia-Grad Transfer PK

[WracerX]

Can he kick it through people? Because we could really use a kicker who can kick it through people.

Actually, if you kick it higher than 7feet off the ground this becomes less of an issue.

Well, we should have a definitive answer here. If we're still getting them blocked, we'll know. I think we'll be fine.

Is he healthy?

Looks healthy to me:

No one is more grateful for a good kicker more than us

The emotional swing from Harrison Butker to what we’ve seen for 2 years was too much. I’d be happy with consistent mediocre+ kicking for a decade

Just wait until you see the response to our punting next year.

Ehh, punting isn’t an all-or-nothing scenario liking placekicking where it’s 3 points or 0 on the board. You can also hit a duck fart of a punt that is effective if it rolls the right direction. Hard to do that on a FG

 

[RussianOffense]

I agree, bad punting is less of a liability than bad kicking. Harvin was a great weapon though.

Spoken like someone who has had great punting.

Get a punter who consistently sends 35 yard line drives, and then we will talk about liabilities.

Agree but all it takes is one last kick before he's not.

sounds very sexually transmitted

I mean. That's true for every player at every position. I haven't seen anything that indicates it was serious.

What’s a kicker?

 

[joeye]

Kicker that froze during games or a line that couldn’t block...did we ever decide what our problem was last year?

 

[gtrower]

Probably the 2nd most important addition to the 2021 roster behind Cochran.

 

[zippyGT]

I asked a TN fan what he thought and his comment was along the lines of “Terrible kicker. We don’t want him. We have the top recruiting class in the country and are about to make a run. He’ll be sorry he left.”

They’re like orange uga fans.

probably worth at least +1 wins .. maybe 2.

our margin of defeat was more than 20 points per game last year
take out the Clemson loss and it's still 18 points per game.
he'll help.
but it's gonna take more than a competent kicker to get past 3 wins.

How many times did we punt or go for it in 4th down and fail in plus territory this season? Having a good kicking game takes some pressure off the offense to score TDs every drive, and also can allow play calling to change. You can't just look at it as adding 3-6 net points to each game.
