We call them “specialists” because they are good at kicking and punting the ball. They are discriminated against by the other players, fans, and groupies for being different.
Some of them, like Pittsburgh’s Jeff Reed, turn to drinking and rooster-style hairdo’s to gain limelight. Others, like Chicago’s Robbie Gould, sadly remain unheard.
Fans rarely wear kicker jerseys. When is the last time you saw a bad ass Gostowski jersey? To kickers everywhere, we raise our plastic cups.
This years top 5 specialists entering the draft are….
1. Punter- Durant Books, Ga. Tech (Ray Guy Award Winner)
2. Kicker- Steven Hauschka, NC State (8 for 8 from past 40)
3. Kicker- Brandon Coutu, Georgia (Bad hamstring)
4. Kicker- Art Carmody, Louisville (NCAA career-record 433 points)
5. Kicker- Taylor Mehlhaff, Wisconsin (Made 21 of 25 FGs)
