[QUOTE="CuseJacket, post: 746080, member: 274"] My position re: Special Teams is that much of it is coaching, particularly coverages, trick plays, etc. There is also an element of mental readiness and corresponding unpredictability with the field goal unit in play to start this year. I trust that Jude's performance the first two week's is not reflective of practice. There is no way he won a wide open D1 kicking competition with the type of performance we are seeing in game action. Unfortunately practice is all the coaches had to go off of prior to Sept 12th. We need to find a field goal kicker, whether it's Jude or someone else, to become a good team. Unfortunately it's not a situation you can necessarily coach up in the middle of a season because there is no free agency. There is a reason kickers are not always offer scholarships out of HS... as has been proven across coaches at GT and with other programs, you just don't know if they'll be able to perform at the level needed in college.
