Absolutely they do.

According to the roster, we have a kicker who was redshirted. Anyone know the story? If that's the case, why the redshirt?

Connor McMahon is the guy. Pretty interesting story on this kid. He took a year off after high school to go be pirate...as luck would have it he lost his leg. Card game or shark inccident, i do not know. Got fitted with a peg leg. Chizik was waiting till he got fitted with the proper prosthetic enabling him to kick field goals.

What's the deal with the Mohosky kid? Is he still around? Is he any good?

Just what we need a one-legged kicker?

He had an injury playing soccer the summer before he came here, I think it was a torn ligament in his plant leg. I have no idea if that is still affecting him, but as I remember there was a lot of excitement over him at one time.
