I don't disagree. But people can make that point without putting totally made up statistics that aren't even close to reality and totally unreasonable in their argument.
Narveson to Transfer
- Thread starter SECyclone
- Start date
"Cave In"! Now somebody's speaking my languageWas at the Nebraska 23-23 tie game and everyone from back then remembers Tom Goedjen's missed XP that would have given us a 24-23 lead. Almost no one, other than me, remembers the Nebraska kicker also missed an XP earlier in that game. Goedjen was a good kicker, I'll say that even if he did hit on my gal at the Cave Inn one night.
Keep in mind this is a group of athletes that tear their acl's celebrating.

Narveson is now at the Univeristy of San Diego.
Reid Sinnett from Johnston, IA was their starting QB this year and may get picked up as an undrafted free agent.

I may be picked up as an undrafted free agent too.
I personally would go for the touchback every time. But if they are going for a strategy of baiting a return, maybe don’t be so stubborn that you can’t change your strategy if the returner is one of the best in the country.

Rather than starting a new thread for a walk-on, I will just mention here that punter Brian Papazian is no longer listed on the roster. He is not listed on last year's roster either, although he was at the start of the season. I wonder if he quit he team before the season ended.
Narveson is now 24/24 on XP
13/14 on FG which includes 6-6 from 40-49 yards..
1/2 from 50+ including a 53 yard make.

Glad he is doing well now. He was a highly recruited guy out of HS. No idea why he didn't work out at ISU, but there was certainly an opportunity for him.
Yes, I can sort of understand wanting to get someone behind the 25 on the kickoffs, but it would be nice to have that guy that can blast it out of the back of the endzone and avoid the drama most of the time.
Congrats to Narverson on Lou Groza semi -finalist list
As good as this year has been. This is really Iowa State of us. The back up kicker goes and becomes one of the best in the country. Glad he is able to go do a good job. We could really use him this year. Oh well.
It shouldn't be a huge surprise. He was a very highly rated kicker coming out of high school and he was quoted somewhere as saying that he didn't really work as hard as he should have at Iowa State. That points to success elsewhere when he had already figured that out.
I wish him all the best.
I hate it when people resurrect old threads and I start reading it like a new one and then eventually figure out I'm reading old news
Lose this pathetic outdated nonsense, please. Total BS.
So without a special teams coordinator.... do we even have a kicking specialist that works with the kickers and punters during practice.... working on their form, power, accuracy, etc?
Watching us kick and punt during games.... you would think that they aren't getting any coaching during the year.... just practicing by themselves during practice.

Would donate a nut to have a kicker that can kick it out of the end zone like a normal college kicker.
Hahaha. Why? I suffered years and years of it. We lost a good kicker and kept a crappy one. You act like I didn’t attend my first game at Clyde Williams and have seen. I thing but horrible football for the most part.
