So we didn't get a kicker

[RUSK97]

Are we planning on getting a walk-on?

 

[Doctor Worm]

Yes. Possibly more than one.

May still be a scholarship kicker.

 

[RU-Kidding]

May still be a scholarship kicker.

Aren't there place-kickers already on the roster??

 

[AreYouNUTS]

I think we've got schollies left and more likely open after the spring.

Are we planning on getting a walk-on?

Yes - that appears to be the plan that they are laying out for prospective kickers -

Jared Smolar - Valparaiso (Valparaiso, IN) - was visited Thursday, January 28th
Smolar said that Coach Okruch told him "we are looking for a PWO to come in and win the job and that I am one of their top three targets"

Sounds good to me! I remember hearing that's the one position where there's always still good prospects after NLI day.

Keep in mind even if we have scholarships left the 85 limit is always there. So giving a scholarship to a kicker is not free long term even if it is this year.
