Who is going to coach the kickers? Is there any track record of any coach that can possibly get us at least back to zero missed extra points with the players we currently have? | As far as coaching kickers, and helping them with technique, the only one qualified to coach a kicker has to have been a kicker himself. I doubt if they have a former kicker on staff. Can you imagine someone who has never hit a golf ball trying to help a college level golfer with his swing? |

| I wish the Colquitt and Reviez families would start a Kicking Academy in Knoxville for future kickers/punters. Start training them early and send them on to UT. | |

| How the heck do you break a leg kicking a football? Especially when all you do is kick footballs. | |

Smh.  | Also, there was info yesterday about Aaron Medley from Lewisburg/Marshall Co., a Jr. this year, who is the top-rated kicker in the country. | |

Thankfully, CBJ has promised to make special teams a weapon this year. Enter James Wilhoit

| Having a reliable kicker would be such a huge thing. A school as traditionally good as Tennessee shouldn't have any problems with recruiting a good kicker once every four years. Need to get it together!

My bet’s on Palardy ending up the punter and Bullock ending up the kicker. We’ll see what happens after the spring.
