I saw this last night, and was wondering why a kicker would want to come all the way from Maryland to pay tuition at the U of O. Maybe he feels like he is good enough to either earn a scholarship or impress NFL scouts. I guess if I am looking at major programs who need a kicker, Oregon's pathetic performance at that position this year would be enticing.

Why is it such feast or famine with kickers for us? :x Doesn’t sound like this guy will do anything but push a real kicker to get better.

Yahoo/NBC Sports calls the dude a "Five-star kicker"... https://sports.yahoo.com/five-star-kick ... 21866.html

Edit: Upon actually reading the article, I see that the five star rating is from here: https://kohlskicking.com/player-profile ... on-beattie

If you pay those kicking camps you get a 5-star rating. Adam Stack was a 5-star kicker, everyone is a four or five star if they go to those camps.
