Maybe some day we'll have enough money to hire a kicking coach, until then maybe adopt more of a go for it attitude.
It's the rules that prevent this. Years ago the NCAA limited the number of coaches schools could have and that cut wound up meaning that kicking coaches were pretty much out of the game. That's why there's coaches doing double duty (e.g OC/Special Teams coach and whatever dual coaching roles) with kickers even though kicking is so specialized. I don't know of any school willing to give up a TE or WR coach for a kicking coach so coaches are forced to work double duty in areas they have to learn on the fly.
That said, are you serious that Pinkel doesn't give kickers schollys? That is shocking to me.

We may have had one under GP and have one coming in with the next class. A Tennessee kid no less.
