[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 402276, member: 2175"] Every year dozens of kickers are signed as PWO or sometimes scholarshipped. Every year dozens of them line it up in a stadium that holds 50-60,000 with 11 angry guys with muscles like tree trunks flying at them intending serious bodily harm, and every year it plops at the 12 yard line. The case can be made that recruiting kickers is the biggest gamble a coach takes. It doesn't matter if he has a quick hip turn or large wrists or if he runs a 4.6 40 and his daddy is seven foot tall. Those attributes are projectionable at other positions, but mean nothing for placekickers. His game is in his leg, and in his windpipe, which gives "cotton mouth" a whole new meaning. As Nicklaus said about golf, the game is the 7 inches between his ears. [/QUOTE]
