Last time for me - it’s the ad nauseam part that’s really old. 4 Quote

We recruited the top ranked kicker from Kansas and an All-State kicker from Utah. Apparently waiting for them to perform consistently enough to move ahead of Elrich. Elrich had 2nd best FG % in the league last year and we should expect him to improve on that. Unfortunately, he hasn’t yet. 1 1 Quote

How about your guy that only completed 4 of 17 passes in the 2nd half. Or the defense that gave up a 4th and 12 that would have sealed the game. Plenty of blame to go around in that loss. 2 Quote
The Sicatoka Posted October 7 Posted October 7 Didn't UND recruit a solid PK out of Moorhead not long ago? Quote

That's as dumb as saying if we win by 1 point it is only because we made the xtra point. A lot of other factures go into winning an losing a game. Assuming we make the kick that doesn't mean we win the game. At best it goes to OT. If the defense can make a stop or the offence can not give the ball back to Montana we win the game. 1 2 Quote

What would you have thought if the converted the 4th down and go on to score a TD? 7>3. Don't get me wrong we need better out of our FG Kicker, but there was plenty of blame to go around including our QB. The 1/2 half of the MT game was his worse 1/2 this year. Better QB play we win that game by double digits. We needed someone to made a play. Quote

I think we are on the same wave length, I've wanted them to try the 2 other kickers starting last year, I mean what's the worst thing that can happen we miss a point after and loose by 1. Just have the other kickers do the point after and CJ do the FG. Quote

Im just trying to appease the folks here who think coaching has anything to do with Kicking its the only position that is independent from everything else as long as you block correctly. 1 Quote

Would have been 13 with FG an xtra point or 17 with xtra point and TD instead of FG. This is all assuming the rest of the half plays out the same. I just think it is too simple to blame the loss on CJ when a number of other things went wrong. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted October 7 Posted October 7 Spot hold a ball on the 32 (42 yd FG) with that three-legged holder-ka-thingy. Now kick it through. Now do it with your short ton* of humanity trying to stave off their long ton** of vile, snarling, taunting, hissing, humanity trying to snap your foot off your leg at the ankle. *9 guys **11 guys Quote
