Palardy (and Darr)...

I really hope they ease Bullock in and let him kick extra points or something. I'm not saying Bullock will be any better with any certainty, but I sure would like for Bullock to get some confidence. God knows Partard doesn't have any.
 
He's just bad. I just got up and left the room last year when he would kick (if I wasn't at the game). I was totally shocked when he hit the one against Bama though. Maybe you let Broadus kick the easier stuff and maybe let Mike try the longer trys. I'm starting to think it's a mental thing. The routine stuff for most kickers doesn't seem to be routine for him. He makes the stuff you don't expect , good at onside kicks and fakes. I don't know , maybe Bullock can replace him. I know they wanted him for kick-offs though.

Palardy couldn't kick his way out of a wet paper sack. Pretty damn bad when you get an extra point tipped... when the other team isn't allowed to block kicks

That is pretty bad. I hope they let Broadus at least kick extra points because PAT's with Palardy are far from automatic. I remember cringing every PAT last year with Palardy hoping he would make it. Nobody should have to worry that much about a kicker kicking PAT's on the collegiate level.
 
They should call that Isom girl at LSU and see if she's interested in coming here and kicking. She is a damn sight better than Palardy in all catogories!
 
What Palardy did in high school is null and void at this point

I meant what bullock did in high school compared to Palardy now. Pretty sure I saw a stat were the dude was under 50% on fgs under 50 yards - but he was brought in to kick off not kick fgs - because he really didn't do that much place kicking.

This exactly. I struggle to understand why we are still trying with this guy. I would think at some point you have to say: If it's less than 35 yrd, let Brodus kick it. If it's more than 35 yards, go for it on 4th.
