Anyone think we sign a Kicker?

[GymGator]

Even if Eddy returns, would be nice to have one ready.

Try to flip Paxton Brooks from Tenn?

If Eddy stays for 2018, then he's the kicker.
But if there's another Eddy out there somewhere, then certainly.
However, Chris Howard doesn't appear to be chopped liver...

Don't forget about Connor Davis, from Ocala Forest. His father Judd Davis was pretty good for UF. http://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/connor-davis/Rn5bkoYtEeW-8KA2nzwbTA/gendersport/football-stats.htm

Eddy has spoiled the living shit out of us.

UF has been blessed with many great kickers, both kinds through the years.

IF Eddy stays another year, he could likely leave as the Gators best place kicker in history.

But it's always going to be,,, next man up.

And Johnny Townsend might leave UF as the best punter in UF history, but again, next man up.

We have a really good medical school, plus Shands. We should clone Eddy.

 

[HardeeWildcatFan]

We have a High School Sophomore kicker who can EASILY punch in 45-50 yards with ease… Just remember the name Leo Duarte because he will hopefully be picked up by a Florida team!!!!

Eddy has spoiled the living shit out of us.

Eddy greatest accomplishment was missing the PAT v LSU to pave the way for Mac’s firing

That was Townsend's fault.

That was Townsend's fault.

Not picking on Eddy. He the man. Just thanking him for helping

#2 K Evan McPherson 6-0 165 *** - Fort Payne, AL - MsSt Commit -
UA-AA, and another really good chance to flip to UF.
