New Walk On Punter Brandon Nickle

[Volunteer_Kirby]

Didn't see a thread on this yet...

He's from the class of '16. Originally committed to VTech. From Oak Ridge.

“First off, I would like to thank God for the kicking abilities that he has given me. None of this would have been possible without Him. I would also like to thank my family, coaches and friends. Over the past few weeks it looked as if I might not be able to continue my football career in college. However, I was lucky enough to be recruited once again by my dream school. I feel extremely blessed to announce that I will be continuing my education and football career at the University of Tennessee!”

Nickle had reported preferred walk-on offers at Virginia Tech, Tennessee, Middle Tennessee State, Oklahoma State and Toledo.

Nickle is rated as the nation's 9th best punter according to the Kohls Kicking rankings.

He originally committed to the Hokies on April 11th but did not enroll in the University over the summer as a member of the 2016 class.

Some witty quote about you being drunk at this time of day.

So I'm guessing he's not black

Oh goodie! I get to say it first.

Racist IMO

Reggie Roby use to wear a watch on the field

Ironically, the face of Roby's watch was white.

(...and, yes, he wore a Timex. "Takes a licking and keeps on ticking")

A punter was one of the main reasons we beat UGA

Obviously, you're not familiar with D4H's posting history

Welcome, Brandon!

Focus on learning from Trevor for the next two years, and getting ahead in school. Your chance to shine on the team will come. If Trevor keeps playing the way he did last fall, you may not see the field this season or next; but if you work hard, it will come.

Go Vols!
