Straight line speed and being fluid/fast twitch are two completely different things.
Agree, but big guys are never going to be super twitchy. That's why you have smaller guys like Malcolm and Bryce who you just want to get them in space with the ball, but guys like Cam and Perry are match up nightmares on the deep throws.

Southern Miss. kicker Connor Gibbs was in Auburn today for a visit.

Yeah we need a Kicker badly. This was the worst FG kicking unit in decades. We left a ton of points out there with terrible FG kicking.

I mean, he's not wrong about how hamstrung we were in game situations due to the inability to make routine kicks.

Cam Brown would not be leaving if Perry was. Freeze likes his big WRs. Perry will be heavily involved next season.



You need to wait until Auburn closes its Portal WR additions to see if Perry will leave or not. Of course he won't leave right now as they haven't added anyone yet. But what happens if they add Singleton and CJ Daniels (or even Horatio Fields)? They are clearly looking to add 2 WR's if they can get the guys they like; and some of the guys they are after (like Fields) are bigger WR's.

The fact that Camden Brown left doesn't signal anything about Perry Thompson. Again, the question with Thompson will be how he will feel if we add two Portal WR's who in turn place him back on the bench for next season.

Yea it may be worth making a kickers dreams come true (sort of). I hated watching us suck on special teams last year.

Very. We shouldn’t be having to clutch our pearls watching a 35-yard FG attempt in the 2nd quarter like we did this past year.

It was a major factor (among others) in at least 3-4 of our losses this year.
The damn coaching staff better be passionate about it!

Would you have been comfortable with Mr. Magoo kicking that 22 yarder to win the MNC back in January 2011?

Or would your butthole have been so tight you couldn't shove a BB in it with a jar of Vaseline to help?

I’m way more concerned with finding someone at QB that can punch it in the end zone than a kicker.
