Beleaguered kicking game vows to improve
Posted Aug 28, 2015
According to Coach Larry Fedora, junior Nick Weiler is guaranteed to handle some kicking duties this season. Kickoff duty, to be more specific. But that’s where promises end for the specialists. Redshirt freshman Corbin Daly is expected to start at punter, but junior Joey Mangili is also vying for the spot. At place-kicker, Weiler and redshirt freshman Freeman Jones remain in serious contention.
