Ethan Stark- 65 yd FG

[Dane96]

The kicker we brought in last year, highly touted frosh, blasted two from 65 yards taking practice kicks.

OK but isn't he taking one more step than usual? Will he have the time?

[Dane96]

Every long FG I've ever seen...they take some sort of extra step. In this instance, it looks like he is taking a 1/2 step, if at all. More like a stutter.

 

That said, my purpose was not that they he would hit a 65 yd FG. It's that the kid nails the FG...and has a strong leg, and is seemingly accurate. All traits we've missed the previous two seasons.

 

If he is nailing 40-45 yd FG's with regularity, I'm happy.

Does he have a shot to win the job this year or wait until Toole graduates after this season?

Never forget that kicker we had the season we opened BoFo. Oy vey!

Nothing against Starke, but hitting 65 yard FGs off a tee in practice is like hitting straight drives at the range. An edge rush and a couple of 6-6 guys jumping in front of

you changes everything. Still, 65 yards in practice is a good leg. Oh yes…I remember that kicker in 2013….a laugh a minute.
