I find it hard to imagine that we can't find one kid in state that can kick. They would walk on just to get a chance to play, for the Huskers. We need a kicker, most of our close games the last couple of years, were helped by Henery's leg in winning them. The way our offense, played toward the end of the season, next year would be tough without at least a kicker that was good from 40yrds on in.

GBR!!!

Hi - first time post so you might not believe me but what the heck. I can tell you that the staff has been looking at instate talent to walk on and they didn't wait until yesterday to do so. My bro is a HS soccer coach and one of his former players is in the mix. GBR

I was wondering why weren't going after a soccer player...

While getting a recruit would be nice, if we don't, it won't be the end of the world. We have more than capable kickers in Brett Maher, Jason Dann, and Jon Damkroger. If we don't sign one, a walk on will come in and provide competition.

i hope you're right, but if any of those were "more than capable", i doubt the coaches would be scrambling so hard to sign a scholarship kicker.

I would probably use the term "servicable" when describing the kickers on roster. I see Maher punting and Dann getting first crack at kicker. I expect if all goes well they will go the walkon approach next recruiting cycle, but if it hurts the team I can see the coaches going out and offering someone nationally or maybe the Farlee kid from Norfolk Catholic

The coaches aren't asleep on the need for a kicker. Kid I mentioned is heading to Lincoln to meet with coaches. He'd be a walk on.

I guess we're targeting a different kicker?
