This was a huge get! Leach and the staff have done a great job with this class and are working the portal well.

See for yourself! He had one miss last year from 40-49. He has been in the 80% range throughout his career outside of one year. From 30 yards in he has been basically automatic in his career. And the past two seasons he hasn't missed a kick from 40 yards in.

On paper he is a HUGE upgrade.

I've watched just about every coastal game the last 2 years. This kid is accurate and clutch. Big moments will not bother him.

Can you explain the missed extra points? Looking at the stats I feel like they're an anomaly.

Can't explain it but I do know the majority came in blowouts so maybe just a lack of focus on those but who knows. Kickers are like closers they're really weird

Good analogy.

I guess there could be a blocked kick or two in there but that is a little unusual, especially for him. Regardless, that is a big get.

If we can be accurate from 40 yards in that would be swell.

Plascencia is a punter and kickoff specialist. He's a great punter and that's probably what he'll windup doing and handling kickoffs.

His name reminds me of some Italian soccer player that gets his shot at being a kicker in the NFL. And nails it every time. Can't speak English but as long as he keeps making field goals he doesn't have to.

Is Archer Trafford gonna stay on the roster? He didn?t do all that bad averaging around 43 yards per punt.

He was much better than Day. Day seemed to get worse every year.
