    Love me some Jackie, but I had much rather he go to a Jamie Kohl or another high level coach like that. Kicking is just too specialized and being a great special teams coach has nothing to do with teaching technique. Although Jackie was good on the mental aspects as such.

    I've wondered why we don't send our specialists to camps like that. QBs go to the Manning camp, to work with that guy in California, etc... We should do the same thing with our K's/P's/Snappers. I'd rather them be there working than kicking balls unsupervised on the practice filed next to summer work outs.

    I don't know, and not sure some of our guys haven't gone in the past but I can't recall either way truthfully. But I've been an advocate of them going to those coaches for a long time. Especially the ones who have a great track record of developing guys to the NFL level.

    There you go, for some reason was thinking someone went there. I hope he keeps going but in fairness to him, and Bell for that matter, they have always liked punting more I understand.

    Cooke, Bell, and Sobiesk attended showcases put on by Kohl, Chris Sailer, or Team Jackson. Some did two different showcases. You go to these as often as you would like while in high school. All three of those guys were ranked in the top 15 in the country, some higher in pk or p, just depends. Someone posted that the young man from Wisconsin that is going to walk on was in the top 100. If you go to Kohl kicking web site, you will see they rank the top 99, then at 100...There are 124 ranked #100, listed alphabetically. I think Bell and Cooke have continued to work with kicking coaches throughout their high school and college career.
