You should consider playing D3 football. Here are 10 reasons why: 1. You will probably play more. 2. You will have some semblance of a life. 3. You will have a toned down spring ball (helmets) 4. You will have a shorter preseason (2 weeks~) 5. You will have more options…

“the ball just kicks itself” the level of trust and synchronicity that the Ravens specialists have in each other is first in class and should be the standard all units work to. you’ll never be a better kicker than than your snapper and holder’s ability

I think you’d increase the odds of a coach watching your tape by 98% if you simply DM’d a 15 sec video clip of your 3 BEST plays and not a hudl link. coaches already have too many DMs to get through. make it so simple to eval you that it’s be unreasonable for a coach NOT to.

A kicker trains 10 months for usually 10 FG reps that take less than 1.5 seconds to kick in a season which roughly works out to be a little more than 10 seconds of game time that matter. 10 months of work, for 10 seconds of game time. That's kicking.
