Vandy Kicker Opts out

Vanderbilt kicker Oren Milstein opts out of 2020 season over COVID-19 concerns

I know it is Vandy and a kicker but I think this is only the first of many.

Well, not sure this qualifies as a SEC football player. I think Cal Ripken Jr's backup might have got more work than Vandy's placekicker this year...

Let's give credit where credit is due. He might not have but 4-5 PAT attempts, but you can book it that he will have 9-10 field goal attempts.

IF their offense is waves better than last season.

He can stay home and hide under his bed for all I care

 

[allvol123]

Lol. You cant write this stuff. The Vandy kicker.

 

[SayNoToJorts]

The only position on the field that could feasibly remain socially distanced and also could wear a mask with little discomfort

 

[MontyPython]

If the Vandy punter opts out, they better just scrap the season.

Oren Milstein - the only thing that would make that name more Vandy would be to have a III or IV after it...
I mean really, the kicker doesn't want to be a part of your team, what does that really say about your team?

 

[G8rh8r]

Well, that’s the harbinger of doom right there

Granted that he will not be scoring many points but kick offs at Vandy is a huge job!

[Cmacsmokey]

[BigDave]

You are correct sir...sleep deprived fog here.

 

[TCNC53]

Reminds me of the old question about a tree falling in a forest and no one hears.....

 

[stevenrich2003]

This should really be a kick to their season...

 

[Bennessee01]

I'm glad we have a good kicker. Probably a 1 game difference.

Place kicker has to get close to the holder. Punter is the position where you're (hopefully) by yourself.

 

[Pacer92]

Aren’t kickers usually isolated in practice...and somewhat in game?

One of the only football players that could actually wear a mask...and not be affected. Lol

 

[Grudenator]

Probably going to medical school or something lol

There are more important things than football. Especially with a Vandy degree. The majority of their players are there for the degree, not relying on pro football contracts as most of our players.

Nothing wrong with that.

If most of our players are relying on a pro football contract they're going to be really hungry after they graduate.
