Has Huff or any of our coaches mentioned either being recruited.These players can turn the game around in our favor if we have good ones.Our field goal kicker has no leg outside of 35.Most teams have at least someone who can kick at least 45 yards.Does no mention by the coaches mean they put no emphasis on these important positions?
 
All issues cannot be addressed in 10 months. We need to be patient. I am sure that the AD at Michigan is laughing all the way to the bank by not firing Jim Harbaugh as all the fans and media wanted. I would love to know the amount of money that donors has sent to Michigan since Saturday. Be patient. Let it build. The correct way.
 
Agree, we need some kickers for sure. WKU's kicker had a big leg and it is a difference maker.
 
Surely someone will fall in our lap.

Remember when Synder recruited a kicker from the soccer team?
 
Kicker is an underrated position in today's game... If you want to see what a good one means to a team, watch Justin Tucker with the Baltimore Ravens.

Dude is something like 91 percent accurate over his 9 year career, has the record for longest FG at 66 yards and has made his last 50 kicks in the 4th quarter or overtime (with 18 career game winners).

In football, where so many games are decided by one score, having a good kicker matters... Is Marshall going to go find a future NFL Hall of Famer like Tucker, probably not. But finding a kid that is consistently good from 45 and in, and at least gives you a chance from 50-52 would be a huge deal.
