We have had some good punters through the years. Chris Mohr played for 13 years on and off but JK was our best yet. I'm convinced the awards people want to give less recognized teams awards where possible--which led to JK's snubbing that year.
BOL also believes Bama is the favorite to land Nicholson.
27-28 on field goals in 2023 (including 25 straight, tying an FBS record set in 1982)
Under 40 yards: 17-17
40-49 yards: 9-10
50+: 1-1
In 2022, Nicholson missed two from 40-49 and two from 30-39.
In 2021, he missed one each from 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, and 50+ in 2021.
So Nicholson has improved each year.
I was cautiously optimistic about Talty (obviously would be a drop off from reichard) but this would be huge. Big adjustment in pressure going from Miami (OH) to Alabama but you have to make that bet here on our end
As a buckeye, our fanbase is pushing hard for him, but there is no sign that the staff have even reached out. I would suspect Michigan is more of a threat to Bama at this time than Ohio st

LMAO, Wikipedia either has inside info or is a soothsayer. The edit to the wikipedia page with that change was made almost exactly 1 hour ago.
deboer knows how to win the fanbase
LFG!!! ETA: And Burnip back too, right?
Burnip is returning
Can we finally get a Ray Guy award? I'm so mad that J.K. Scott was snubbed in 2017
Fuck Utah Punters

Bama fatigue is real and JK was one of the many victims of it.
Travesty.
The pieces are slowly and methodically coming together. Coaching staff doing everything right off the filed to this point.
I trust Kdb and this staff. I really do think we have a chance at winning it all, probably not with a perfect season, but I believe
Me too… man after January and the first portal exodus, I’m just glad I’m not still stuck in a trance and rocking back and forth.
Same here, my back is still sore from all of that rocking.
This is actually huge news Burnip was lowkey the second best player on the team ngl

My god he’s not going to miss a fucking kick this year
It’s simple science
We may never lose again.
I did the math and it all checks out.

We need this. Ohio State is pushing for him hard though. Would be tough to get him out of the state he currently is in now.

How does he feel about seeing the sun most of the year, not dealing with snow, and being close to the Gulf beaches?
Idk but he's lived in Ohio his entire life so I doubt it matters to him
It matters to him. He might not realize that it matters to him now but he will.
KICKER HYPE!1!!1!
Never thought I’d be this excited for a kicker
You must be new here.
I can remember years and years of being unexcited about our kickers 👀
Alabama- where every kick is an adventure
Oh I’ve been through all the years of bad kickers, but I think this dude has more hype than reichard
Let’s go!!

Well he did commit to us.
Please, please Jesus. This is what I want for my birthday 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Committed to the Tide. We got him.
