..ignore the sweep in baseball & have a meltdown over some field goal kicker in a meaningless spring scrimmage.
I realize informing you of this will mean nothing to you, but the FG kicker has all summer to practice & improve.

What? All summer to improve? He's not a quarterback, he's a kicker. It's literally the only position that is the same from high school to the NFL. You can hit a 25 yarder or you can't. Mullen needs to pull his head out of his *** and hire a SP/T coach. Jackie Sherrill preferably.
..but guess what?
Today, I don't give a ****.
Today is about the baseball team & not about some hack missing a chip shot FG in a meaningless scrimmage.

Alright *******, please tell us the differences in kicking on an amateur level and professional level. Of any position it's the only thing that doesn't change. Jackie Sherrill is one of the most respected SP/T coaches in the country, and I thought since you have top secret NFL kicking knowledge you'd know that. 1. His MSU teams are proof that he can coach all aspects of SP/Ts up. 2. There's a reason Mullen brought him in 2 summers ago to work with the kickers and punters. 3. Go 17 yourself.
Wow, OK let me give it a shot considering I was a FG kicker for Jackie. Ball size, tee, width of FG posts and hash marks to name a few As far as Jackie being one of the most respected ST coaches in the country? I guess its just really funny to see how youbelievethat withabsolutelyno knowledge of what really goes on. Jackie knows very little about punting and knows even less about FG kicking, that my stupid 17 friend is a fact.
So the difference you're saying is the holder, not the kicker, and a situation where in the NFL a kick is a miss where in high school the same said kick hits the goal post and is a... Miss. But the kick, technique, suspense... All the same. It's not the difference in wide receiver/quarterback changes technique and style at every level. That was the point.
How dare you insult the KANG! To some around here that's blasphemy! He turns water into wine for a lot of these sheep.
I'll tell you this we will be fine at punter..My buddy John Vanhorn walked on as a punter this year..Baker and John have been battling late this spring for the starting punter position..John will likely be 2nd or 3rd stringer due to him walking on late but he is a pretty good punter..Him and a buddy and I kicked some out at the Sportsplex in Starkville and he has a good leg..He told me in practice he kicked a pretty long punt and one was timed and had a hangtime of 4.7 seconds...In the last scrimmage before the spring game, he kicked like 4 times or so and had a few that he kicked and mainly pinned the returners due to hangtime and somewhat distance..John is a first year undergrad meteorology student w/ me but I now have an insider to the football team..He said Balis is a beast of a trainer...John was in the Air Force before coming here as he is 28 years old but is still in great shape..So I believe we are fine at punter..Kicker, yes we may have missed but like we said we have Devon Bell coming in and I think we will be ok..Hopefully, he will be ready to go and we can fix any little errors we made..
