He can't improve anything he has done at Clemson, he has the Clemson all time record for punts inside the 20 and could only hurt his chances by staying next year. If you are going to comment you should know your facts or otherwise sound stupid???

This decision is so strange to me

I'm sure he's looked into it more than me, and expects he will go higher this year than next, but I don't understand why he would do this. Hopefully he does as great in the pros as Catanzaro has done!

He not likely to get drafted at all ... so it really doesn't matter when he comes out. As a punter, he will simply hope to get picked up by some team and make their roster. He's got a good leg and he probably has a good chance of making that happen.

pretty good at tackling. Glad to see that we got the next guy up a kick in the game. Welcome to the starting role, Andy Teasdall.

Very average career if you ask me. He could barely even kick it into the end zone on kickoffs. And when his opening kickoff vs the coots went out of bounds... I was about to lose it.

I agree that he definitely won't be punting much next season and he completely BOMBED his kicks tonight. I mean where did that crazy a$$ hang time come from??? Punished all night IMO...but he'll definitely be missed for sure, solid all year

But I do wish him the best in the NFL and in all of his endeavors.

It is rare for punters to be drafted. Odd decision.

I presume he has already graduated or will graduate soon.
I wish him the best in the NFL.

He is a good punter, but no Dale Hatcher or Chris Gardocki

May miss him more for his kickoffs.

Good luck. Pinion has been a huge part of our season
Dec 29, 2014, 11:12 PM

in fact he's been huge over the last 2 seasons in flipping field position.
For all we know, he will graduate before next season. Its not like another year is going to help his draft position, he's unlikely to be drafted this season or next. If he will have his degree, why not go start a career?

What is there to lose? He has a slim chance of being drafted at all as a junior or a senior, why not go out after a pretty good season? I don't expect nearly as much activity for the punter next year compared to next year. He will get signed by some team and hopefully make it like Catman.

Best of luck Bradley. I think this is a decent decision
Dec 30, 2014, 8:03 AM

I wish he was staying but I think the opportunity is there for him. He's been a huge asset for us all year.
As far as the draft, I'm sure he holds no illusions about being drafted. If he's lucky he'll be drafted in the 6th round, maybe 5th if he's really lucky. But punters know this going in. I suspect his plan is simply to bide his time and sign with the team that makes him the best offer. He will have a successful career in the league, I think.

He can get a job as a kickoff specialist, if nothing more.
