re: Class of 2017 Recruiting MEGATHREAD: Say Your Goodbyes Edition

According to Kohl's Professional Kicking website (I'm assuming this is the main competition to Chris Sailor?) the state of Alabama has the top two kickers in the country for the Class of 2018.

Kohl's Evaluation on McPherson:

---

Mcpherson was dominant at the 2016 Southern Winter Showcase as well as the 2017 Underclassman Challenge. He has established himself currently as the best kicker in the 2018 class. His confidence in his ability to crush field goals is impressive. Ball striking is repeatable, it explodes off his foot and his ability to call on his "A" ball is D1 ready right now. He showed one of the premier kickoff legs in the 2018 class by winning the Kickoff competition at the 2017 Underclassman as well. He is currently ahead of the entire 2018 field in his ability to lock in and hit the same ball rep after rep . He is a high level punter as well, but his upside as the nations best kicker is tough to match at this point. McPherson has continued to prove throughout his career that he can make field goals. He will be a highly sought after recruit in the 2018 class. His field goals during the 2016 national Scholarship Camp were very impressive going 27 out of a possible 29 during the charting portions.

Miami just offered McPherson a scholarship FWIW.

ETA: McPherson is from Fort Payne, AL.
