Max Gilbert

[hardyemt_p]

I know kicking isn't easy but damn. He is the opposite of clutch and it wouldn't bother me at all if we have a new kicker next season.

Probably be asking for a raise, coach i only missed a few kicks

I saw on X that Gilbert is going to the portal.

I hope he bounces back and has a nice career somewhere else.

Just not against the Vols. He’s put us thru enough misery already.

Best for both parties at this point. Everyone needs a fresh start.

Richard G. West parody account on X is who reported that. I wouldn’t lend it much credence.

I think Max is gonna try to regain his confidence at a lower tier school

 

[livefaith]

Our special teams sucks.

... And then the 4Q happens.

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

Good luck to the guy. Great stats but not great at kicking under pressure. That will get your shown the door in this league.

Like someone else posted somewhere, let go get an aussie. Someone that grew up in the outback and knows what pressure is from wrestling gators.

That would be quite the feat considering there are no gators in Australia. Maybe you are thinking about Crocodiles Mate?

Crikey!

Oh dang. I didn't even notice that

 

[Vol865]

Yeah. I stuck up for him after UGA but I think we gotta do something

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

He has clearly put his job in play. Bet he is aware, and coaches are aware. No need for redundant classless shots as at a guy that is striving to be a VFL.

Now we can turn our attention to all the posters failing to display minimum levels of class and character and deservedly give them back what they gave. Just like missed FG, NO EXCUSES, including BVS.

Not with our team. No one is held accountable - players or coaches.

We most definately need a new kicker, he just cannot hit clutch fg. He has lost us two games that I know of of very makeable fg

 

[cgrish]

Yeah, cost us the Georgia game. He’s just not consistent.

Cost us he bowl game also

[utvolpj]

Which one? Wasn't last night's

 

[cgrish]

If a meaningless Music City Bowl is too big for him, he certainly needs to go.

You can tell by looking at him he is scared to death.

 

[GhostVol]

I wish we had his splits of made and missed feild goals when tying or taking the lead. Cause he’s probably one of the best kickers when it’s a stress free kick and one of the worst if the kick has any meaning what so ever. It’s wild

Can't hit when there's money on the line

 

[cgrish]

Which one? Wasn't last night's

Well we lost by one, had he hit the fg we win 31 to 30

 

[cgrish]

I’ve held my tongue on Max this year. He’s had a couple of rough stretches in his career and after the miss earlier this year I thought he’d settle back in, but that miss tonight was the worst. Plant foot position was terrible and it was missed as soon as he hit it. I am thankful for his effort, but he has regressed this year and it’s time to move on.

I haven't thought of what you said about regrerssed, you are right, so could it be coaching?
