If I were Barber I’d be worried about my job.

I’m just worried about losing 10+ yards of field position every time we swap punts with, say, Alabama. If Barber worrying about his job will add 10+ yards to his kick, then he should worry. more.

Take a closer look at Bama’s punter’s stats. Then start worry about losing 35 yards of field position when we swap punts with them.

I assume you mean 35 yards per game there.

Well, 65 minus 30 does equal 35. But who’s counting?

Eerily reminiscent of Blair Walsh’s 2011 season – FG inaccuracy that was season long – between a good Jr. year and great NFL debut. Not saying we need a FT ST coach, but something is clearly lacking in our coaching of kickers. Barber’s been bad for 2 full years now. What do we have – like 8 quality control assistants now?

Well coach, we’ve had 3 years to coach him up OR decide he can’t handle it and replace him. So instead of recruiting a punter or putting an all-points bulletin out for preferred walk-on punters, we’re bringing in another kicker and hoping he might improve the situation. Worrying about the punting now reminds me of the old adage ‘a day late and a dollar short’. I’m not so sure Barber is the one who is most responsible for the situation.

Time to go to Australia and find a punter like most other schools seem to be doing.
