We NOT Too Deep ... With Kickers
Jun 30, 2013, 7:07 PM
|
|
With the graduation of Spencer Benton, I think we have a dangerous lack of depth at both the Punter & Place Kicker positions. Our front line guys are great (Cat Man & Pinion), but unless Ammon Lakip returns (last I heard that is unlikely), we are one injury away from potential disaster. Hope Dabo has an ace up his sleeve over on the soccer team if that happens.
Anyone else share this concern???

Nope. It's rare to even have a backup on scholarship like Lakip is. There is zero reason to have 2 backups on scholarship.

One injury is unlikely, but two is unrealistic

would like to know if you know what a plethora is. I would not like to think that a person would tell us nobody has a plethora of kickers, and then find out that that person has no idea what it means to not have a plethora.

His use of the word plethora is apt in this case.***

Um, Maryland? Disaster CAN happen to anyone. I still consider the spring game somewhat of a disaster, what with losing our starting TE and backup QB to season-ending injuries!

Per Instagram yesterday, Daniel Rodriguez was playing golf with Ammon Lakip and it appeared to be in Clemson. I don't know if that means he's back though.
