Kicking game
My cousin’s grandson Cameron Agler. I sent off several messages about him last year of our coaches. Got no response. Sent them to the email addresses on the UT site. So those were either wrong or they don’t give a poo. This kid is already making some good kicks. He attends Lake High School about a 20 minute drive from UT.
I hope the are aware of him. They should get an offer to him.

RE: Kicking game
I think there's a rule against recruiting the cousin's grandson of a message board poster. I'm sure it's written somewhere.
Were they aware of Clucky or did he just show up? I imagine they know the other local talent too. Good luck to him, we could sure use a good kicker.

One thing I know for sure. No one is working harder than he is to achieve excellence

RE: Kicking game
I hope he isn't using a block and is already up to about 45-50 yards consistently on kicks with good launch angle and an op time under 1.4 and adding in KO duties and getting around 4 seconds of hang with solid distance (down to at most the 10 yard line for freshmen, 5 yard line for sophomores, and GL/TB for anything older than that). Also, having been in the room, there is no chance coaching staffs are worrying about a kicker 2 cycles out.
They also will almost certainly not spend a scholarship on a kicker unless he is a Top 10 prospect (meaning good from 55-60 yards off ground and an 85% or better chart past 40 yards along with a plus KO leg).
Tell him to keep working at it and going to any and all camps he can, those tend to be the only way kids can get their name out there in kicking/punting/snapping. Biggest step is getting off the block as soon as possible, working in a lot of core work and leg/hip flexibility work (which will probably get stifled if he stays at Guard), and to start really blowing out the quads with leg extension weight programs.

That will pay off somewhere, somehow don't you think? As long as it isn't the length of a cesspool from I-75, best wishes to him.

This kid is class of 2025. It looks like he’s doing all the right things so far, so he should keep it up. Coaches won’t be active on a 2025 kicker for quite a while, though. Likelihood of the same coaches even being there by that point are slim…
