January 29th, 2020 at 2:39 PM ^
Sweet. Major get. Can he smuggle in some D tackles in his suit case?
January 29th, 2020 at 3:17 PM ^
If he can put on 120lbs, maybe he can play both
January 29th, 2020 at 3:26 PM ^
and if he put on 180 he could be the next sebastian janikowski
January 29th, 2020 at 4:36 PM ^
Play a suitcase?
January 29th, 2020 at 2:40 PM ^
Congrats young man. Good luck! Go blue!
January 29th, 2020 at 2:43 PM ^
Non-scholarship, but promised one when the next one is available for special teams. (SWEET!)

Great link. Thanks for posting.
"'The academics are absolutely amazing. It’s the No. 1 public education in the nation. That’s the biggest reason for me,' he told The Courier Journal. 'Beyond that, I’m going to the winningest program in college football history. That’s something you just can’t beat. Between the academics and football, everything is just unbelievably amazing. It seemed like a no-brainer to me, honestly.' Hussung also drew interest from LSU, Clemson, Louisville, Alabama, Nebraska and many others."

Kornblue has him 6th ranked kicker for 2020. Kohl’s kicking had him 50th but says “shows flashes of top 15”
January 29th, 2020 at 5:58 PM ^
What could that review possibly mean?? Kicking reviews are a joke! I am glad this kid committed because UM wanted him and they seem to have been pretty good at picking kickers, not because of his "kicking rankings." If these rankings meant anything, Bama wouldn't constantly have kicking troubles. Clearly there is a TON of projection in picking a college kicker, probably even more than the "250lb can put on weight and still move" O-line man out of high school.
January 29th, 2020 at 2:49 PM ^
Nice! I think he can add a few pounds and become a DT.
January 29th, 2020 at 2:56 PM ^
I don’t know, I have pretty high standards for top ranked kickers. /s
JK - Great pickup. You don’t appreciate the kicker until you lose that tight game.
January 29th, 2020 at 3:00 PM ^
Ugh, we don't need any more encouragement to settle for FGs.
January 29th, 2020 at 3:16 PM ^
Want to go back to the RichRod years of having to go for it on 4th & long when down 2 because you have zero faith in the ability to kick a FG?
January 29th, 2020 at 3:38 PM ^
No. It was a joke, apparently a bad one, my bad. But I would like to see end of half TDs.
January 29th, 2020 at 5:47 PM ^
Eh, I immediately laughed. I can't always figure out why, in some posts, subtle sarcasm goes undetected, and, in others, it goes unnoticed.
January 29th, 2020 at 7:51 PM ^
A lot of people actually believe incredibly stupid shit. So subtle sarcasm can easily be interpreted as one of those situations.

Cole Hauser has been in some ok movies.
January 29th, 2020 at 3:26 PM ^
Of course. Isn’t he Rutger Hauser’s cousin?
January 29th, 2020 at 4:49 PM ^
No. You're think of Douglas Quaid's alter ego, Howser, in Total Recall (1990 version)
January 29th, 2020 at 3:44 PM ^
Good Will Hunting
January 29th, 2020 at 5:36 PM ^
He was awesome in Pitch Black.
January 29th, 2020 at 4:54 PM ^
It's good!!!?
January 29th, 2020 at 5:03 PM ^
Huge get
January 29th, 2020 at 5:10 PM ^
Given Alabama's history with kickers... am I the only one who thinks it may be a negative that he was also recruited by 'Bama???
/s
January 29th, 2020 at 5:32 PM ^
Welcome to the family, Cole! Go Blue!
January 29th, 2020 at 7:18 PM ^
Awesome. Kickers score points. Points are good.
January 29th, 2020 at 9:21 PM ^
It's better to have a good kicked than an unreliable one, so I'm going to say this is good news! Congrats young man!
January 29th, 2020 at 10:18 PM ^
Love it!
Welcome to the family, Cole! GO BLUE!

2020? 2021?

Is there an analysis out there of how 5 star kickers have actually done in getting to the NFL the way other 5 star players do? Ours had some of the ugliest kicks I’ve ever seen two seasons ago and split time with a walk-in last season...
