How many games has this coaching staff lost because they have just settled with below avg kickers?

What good kicker did we pass up? Why can’t we recruit a better kicker. CJ taking over for Stevens said something but we are still missing a elects kicker like from the D2 days

This is where they messed up. #92 would have made that kick yesterday.

When Ziebarth went out of the game their run game was non existent. It is very clear what he means to this offense. Just my opinion. Both in the run game and pass game. And I’m talking about his pass protection. 
 

I’m also curious why Tommy played in the 4th? He clearly wasn’t getting the job done.

Because extra points are too close and it makes him nervous? He’s money between 25-35 yards?

He’s money from everywhere. But unfortunately he didn’t get the opportunity to kick that FG yesterday so I guess we’ll never know. But I have faith in #92 to make any kick.

If he’s money he’s German Marks from 1923

Sure. You keep cheering for Tommy ‘The Cannon’ Schuster and I’ll keep cheering for #92 Stevens. Everybody will be happy :)

The kicker certainly wasn’t the only reason UND lost 27-0 yesterday. Perhaps one of the reasons, but only one of many, many, many sad unfortunate reasons. 

I agree,

Just like NDSU week Offense-Defense-Special Teams-Preparation/coaching led them to victory, unfortunately, UNI week where the Offense-Defense-Special Teams-Preparation/coaching led to the defeat.

We are missing a kicker that is as good as the local high schools.. I’m not sure if it’s talent or scheme.. GFC hit a game winner from 44 Friday night

I think he has already missed 2 xtra points this year.. so not money from about 20 yds..

Matt Prater just missed one today from 34 because the laces were in. Good try buddy 

Not sticking up for prater.. but this is a terrible argument.. nfl uprights are like half the width and our xtra points are literally 19 yd fgs.. he has missed two of them this year.. get over it buddy.

These kicker arguments always annoy me.. an extra point should not be an exciting play..  it’s not up for discussion.. if it’s not talent.. it’s scheme and they both suck. 
 

field goals less than 40 yds should be 90+%.. instead und has been scared to attempt them for the last 3+ yrs.. that’s not because 92 is lights out and automatic..

He was literally perfect on extra points and inside 40 yards last year. He met all the criteria you laid out. The laces have been an issue this year. I have faith in #92

He was literally 45 for 45 on extra points and 9 for 9 on FG’s inside 40 yards last year. Looks like he is exactly what you are looking for :)

So a kick that’s almost twice as long? Math much?

NCAA kickers on extra points 94%. NFL kickers on extra points in 2022 (33 yards) 94.6%. Pretty comparable numbers buddy :)

He was pro quality stats wise so he got benched? 
 

You know why the nfl percentage is so high? Because guys who blow a bunch of extra points lose their jobs.

Is Danny the next HC?  When?

Bubba won the big one a week ago.  Let us all keep rhat in mind.

However we are as bad on the road as we are good in the Alerus.

Thoughts?

Change is needed. Current setup is not good enough. The program is absolute ineptitude on the road. The win against North Dakota State cannot cover that up.
