Q. Can any of these guys punt it more than 18 yards?

Punters/Kickers on the roster: Rubright (all name team) Chumley, Rodrigo, Buce, Podlesny

Best I can tell, it’s not a talent issue with Camarda. He just mentally falls apart in game situations.

Apparently he’s an ace in practice and CKS puts a premium on practice results.

Who works with our punters?

Camarda, like you said, has the physical ability to BOOM punts; it’s the mental game. Ever since Texas, he can’t go a game without a shank. And the bigger the game, the more likely it occurs. Notre Dame, Tennessee...

He needs someone/some technique to straighten out his in-game thoughts bc he’s psyching himself out, believing somewhere in himself — that little shvt voice — that he’s gonna f-up & then he does.

Maybe the practices are too chill & then come game time, he tenses up. What causes a shank exactly? A lack of focus? Like he should be turning his mind off & just be in that game moment repeating what he’s done time & time & time again in practice.

He needs some zen. I hope he finds some bc we need him. That month of November...
