welcome! How big of a deal is a 5 star kicker, I know the star ratings are completely separate from the regular system.

A real fan doesn't say "may."

Brilliant marketing move by Kohl.

Looks like more game winners against the Hawks.

So Konrardy will be a SR and this kid a FR? Is it kind of a done deal that we'll be 5 for 5 by then and there's no redshirts? Either way, I guess it doesn't matter. He can work under Konrardy for a year and then have 4 to play.

Konrardy is going to graduate and go to the NFL after this year, I'd imagine.

Yes - this is a big deal. With our new offense and no proven players to carry over we need this kid!

Kyle has 2 years left, so my guess he does not go pro this year.
