'We knew Drue was special.' Bengals' Drue Chrisman perfected punting prowess at La Salle

Nate Moore didn’t know what a Division I punter looked like or if the kicked ball would sound different. He had never coached one during his tenure as the head coach at Minster High School or while he was an assistant at Chaminade Julienne and Hamilton.

When he was the head coach at La Salle, Moore just knew there was something special about the way Drue Chrisman punted the football.

“When you have a kicker with that kind of talent, they hit the ball different than regular guys,” said Moore, now the head coach at Massillon.
