| When Bullock Gets on campus what are the chances he I able to contribute right away. I don't know alot about the kid and most fans seemed to give mixed reviews on him. With all the trouble with the kicking game in the O and W game, does he have the ability to allow me not to cringe when the FG team is on the field. |

| If its a short fg Brodus has proved capable. Now for kickoffs I hope Bullock can bring the lead foot because neither Palardy nor Brodus can put in in the end zone with regularity. |

| On the field goals, Bullock is just as wild as Palardy |

Just askin Posted via VolNation Mobile | I get what you're saying, but kicking field goals is obviously a high pressure situation and it's hard to imagine he's going to get better with 3-4 times the fans in the stands, a hostile environment, and the game on the line... but here's to hoping...  |

| Rumor is that we have another walkon kicker coming in August named Ali Haji-Shiek Jr.
Also what ever happened to that Frat guy kicker from last year? |

| CDD has been bragging on Palardy all spring. Then he misses a fairly easy field goal, and I think the announcers said one of his EP's was slightly tipped. I'm just wondering even with 35,000 fans in the stands, does he get "stage fright" when performing when it counts. I hope he turns out great, but it seems his problems may be more in his head than in his leg. I hope no one throws any player under the bus after spring practice. |

| Bullock will probably not be any more accurate, but, from what I've seen, he should be able to send it deep into the end zone from the 35. I wouldn't be surprised if he takes over kickoff duties. I'm still holding out hope that Palardy will do an acceptable job with field goals this year, despite what happened in the spring game. All comments from practice have been positive. But I know practice and game don't always produce similar results. |
