When an ave punter is announcing he coming back your program is doomed. What other team in the country does this??
At least he is committed.
Generally the kickers bring the strange cousin/ fun uncle dynamic to a locker room. I appreciate his alertness to the overall sense of doom in our fanbase. Its comedic relief and he played his part perfectly.

Well, given all the backup QB departures, besides punting, Kai is additional proven QB depth! :)

Can he play WR?

I appreciate it from the perspective that I know coaches really can't come out and say much (for whatever reason) so it's nice to hear something reassuring from someone inside the program.

I think his competition % this year was 0%. His punting and passing have fallen off.

Tough crowd, :)

In 2023, He was 1 for 2 for 32 yards, passing

He is now 7 for 8 (87%) in his career for 205 yards with 3 touchdowns.

Hopefully his punting performance bounces back to 2022 levels in 2024

I thought he was 0-1 in 2023. Good catch. I don't remember the completion.
