The kicking game will be helpful to the young defense based on feild position alone. I don't see many teams, if any, that will be able to drive the entire field on Venables and this defense. Not enough times to outscore this potent offensive group.

imagine if he bulked up a little how far he could boom it

his average last year was 39.5 yards

Spiers average last year was 40.6 yards

He's a year into Batson's boot camp.***

Punting stats can be misleading. Not every punt is for distance.

Those punts in the championship game must've helped his average...

he looks like he kicks it high with more hang time

Based on that video

You should do a bit more research before you judge based of Spiers ending the season good in a few games at best.

Check this video of Swanson:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=36&v=HsNUVrA_g9E

BTW, Aiden is Kornbluekicking's Fav 50 #1 punter (and earned their Punting Champion honors in 2017 too):
https://www.kornbluekicking.com/fab50puntersupperclassmen/

Also, according to the Kohl's camps, he was consistently booming them 50-55+ yards, with over 4.5 seconds of hang time.
https://kohlskicking.com/player-profiles/aidan-swanson

And reading this...he seems to be pretty good at punting the ball inside the 10, and has a career long of 65 yards.

Suuuweeettt. Looked to me like he boomed one there. I’ve heard returners have more problems with left footed kickers Because of the fade and not used to it.

Patriots almost exclusively use one because of that. At least that’s what belicheck? Says.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg2016_pickem_champ.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I wonder how rare a left footed kicker is


Jan 21, 2019, 8:45 PM

My son, BigAL, is left handed, but kicks
a ball with his right foot.

I’ve heard that too kerigantoo - that the reverse spin makes the ball harder to handle.....

If people were as good as their obituary - and products were as good as advertised - this would truly be a wonderful world !!

He will be our next Bradley Pinion.

Clemson doesn't care about basketball....as evidenced by Brown-L getting 14 years.

sure hope you're right,although spiers redeemed himself a bit in the natty.

Jan 21, 2019, 9:00 PM

Many people have predicted a drop off in our defense next year...well, here's the secret weapon that will make any doubts go away when our opponents are routinely starting off inside the 20 yard line.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

and he's a leftie...


Jan 21, 2019, 9:31 PM

which potentially means problems for the returners because the ball spins differently.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-20yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


Re: and he's a leftie...


Jan 22, 2019, 7:02 AM

Unless the returner is also left handed or the game is played in the Southern Hemisphere, either of which would negate the effect.

I don’t think there’s much to see here. He’s pooch kicking from around midfield trying to kill it inside the 10. Doesn’t even look like a full leg swing.

Re: New punter on campus!


Jan 22, 2019, 8:59 AM

Probably the highest point he's ever had a punt blocked .
