Umpire2829 Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 It has to be the kicker from Polk County. Several weeks ago his kickoffs went through the end zone. No, not into it in the air but OVER the endzone in the air! With no wind every kickoff was going at least 65 yards in the air. His punting average through the first few weeks was about 55 or 60 yards. Watched him one game and he had 3 over 60 with 2 of those going out of bounds inside the 10 yard line. In warmups his fieldgoals were good from both hashmarks at 55 yards. He's very impressive to watch. /popcorneater.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":popcorneater:" border="0" alt="popcorneater.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Polk has a kicker that can make them from 55. And BS again on the punting average.....if that is the kids average then why does the Knoxville paper have him listed. Not to mention why is every college team in America not visiting Benton to watch this kid????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention why is every college team in America not visiting Benton to watch this kid????? I think this is his first year playing football. He's a soccer player who transferred to Polk. Instead of questioning it, just drive down 411 to watch him. I was amazed by him. I saw Bailey when he was at McMinn. I think this kid has a stronger leg than Bailey did, and yes, Bailey has a cannon. Since Coach Davis was one of the managers who worked with Coach Fulmer, don't be surprised if he ends up in Knoxville. Why would the Knoxville paper list stats on a kid from Polk County? Check the stats in the Chattanooga paper on Friday. Not sure but they'll probably be in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverknown7 Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Castainca from Greeneville has kicking in his blood. His Dad was an all-american soccer player and a Hall of Fame caliber soccer coach. He has been taught how to kick by a great one. He gets better every week. Just ask Sullivan South! I bet the Devils are thinking its nice to have a kicker that knows very little about football, he knows no reason to feel pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo44 Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 I don't know if you consider Warren Co. east or middle, but the Garibaldi kid (if he would kick it streight) has the leg to put it between the uprights on kick offs. /flower.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":flower:" border="0" alt="flower.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighSchoolFanatic Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 Christian Prudomme from Johnson County. Kicked a 51 yarder this year, and hes just a Jr. He does everything for the team. He is the P, K, PR, KR, and WR. Really good, and I think he attended a kicking camp @ LSU this year. Last year the K from King's Academy was kicking the ball cleary THROUGH the endzone on kickoffs. Definitley could play for a D-1. He was soccer style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammonds has already visited Tennessee and is being looked at by most SEC schools. Auburn wants him to visit as well. Knoxville papers do not cover the whole state just area leaders. You will not see teams from Knoxville in the Chattanooga Times either. Get a clue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
