Certainly, 1 Punter on Scholarship makes sense -but- 2 does not.

In case one gets hurt or isn't any good?
Never hurts to have a backup plan.
He has all the scholarships he needs, especially once all the Covid era players are gone.

Aiden Swanson. He is the punter and kicked pretty well in the spring game. We had 4 placekickers plus Swanson on the roster before Boyd transferred. We have options.

This wasn't unintentional roster mismanagement or a handringing, overly cautious move by a coach with a punter complex but more likely a premeditated ruse aimed at avoiding questions, complaints, & critcisms regarding the TP; as Dabo continues to practice abstinence when it comes to talent acquisition by way of the transfer portal—

How do you know both are on scholarship ...... not doubting, just curious where they may be listed as on scholarship.

Because 1 is a senior and we have the next-in-line ready to go (and a backup plan). Same thing last year at kicker - Potter and Gunn were both on scholarship.

So many good WR prospects currently in the portal. I hope we can get the scholarship count down to 83 and finally use the portal for its intended purpose.

But you’re definitely correct on this issue. We shouldn’t have two punters on scholarships. We could have used that extra one on a different position.

Well unless Gun turns out to be no good, we won't need a backup, kickers are low risk of getting injured!!!

He right tho. The reason we have 2 punters on schollie is because Dabo decided he wanted 2.
Why try to make it anymore complicated than that?

You always need a backup in case of injury or the possibility of losing one if he does not have a scholarship.

I miss the days when we had someone like Gardocki. He handled pk,ko,xp,and punting. I can only imagine what Danny would have done with the transfer portal as a viable option.

Swanson is a red shirt Senior. If he hadn’t come back for a 5th year, we would only have 0ne true punter. I know Gunn can supposedly kick and punt, but I think it works out better keeping separate.

Proactive planning from when Streeter was the OC? Haha. Our best weapon was field position not moving the ball.
