What?
What?
If you can't see the tweet, Aidan Birr is coming back.
Would you prefer not having a reliable kicker?Kickers getting NIL money?

Different Era now. Every player is a possible loss during the 2 Portal Windows. Crazy for sure.Thanks for your response, but I never saw anything to indicate he would have thought of leaving. Hell, if they start poaching redshirt freshmen, i'm outa here.
Just seems odd to me. Kid had a good year, but scolly kickers have been suspect at best for the past decade or so. I'm inclined to believe We'll revert to the mean. Butker the only one I'd spend money on and he was shaky as a frosh.Would you prefer not having a reliable kicker?
Kickers are weird. In the NFL theCowboy FG Kicked didn’t play football in College at ND. He played soccer. Played in the MSL for a minute and then kicked in the USFL or whatever the Spring league is now.Just seems odd to me.

I'll never get over Collins ruining Wesley Wells. In CPJ's final season, Wells was 9/9 on FGs, 39/39 on XPs. Between 40-49 yards he was 4/4 (long of 48) so it's not like he was taking chippies.
Collins comes in, Wells loses his spot to Brenton King who was 3/7 on FGs and our kicking game was just attrocious. Wells left the football team the following year and finished school at GT as a regular student. To this day it I still get upset when I think about how Wells was wasted.

You could pretty much say that almost about any position group outside of the geeoffs eraIts kind of remarkable how good our field goal kickers have been directly outside of the TFG era. Wesley Wells perfect 9/9 in 2018, then as soon as TFG is gone, Stewart steps in and goes 12/13 on FG in 2022, and this year Birr goes 14/16 on FG.

Who ruined Gavin Stewart?I'll never get over Collins ruining Wesley Wells. In CPJ's final season, Wells was 9/9 on FGs, 39/39 on XPs. Between 40-49 yards he was 4/4 (long of 48) so it's not like he was taking chippies.

I get upset also. We could have been a 4 win team!Collins comes in, Wells loses his spot to Brenton King who was 3/7 on FGs and our kicking game was just attrocious.

Eh I don't think anyone did. Just feels like Birr is a bit superior. Whereas to me there was no evidence that King was better than Wells. If he wasn't hurt last year I have a feeling Birr would've been the kicker already.Who ruined Gavin Stewart?
