Kentucky Punter Max Duffy wins Ray Guy Award

Punting. Some call it the easiest job in the world, some call it the hardest. Regardless of opinion, it is difficult to be an elite punter at any level of football. This year, Kentucky’s star punter Max Duffy finally got the credit he deserves for bridging the gap into eliteness.

At 26-years old, Duffy had a bit of a late start in college football. A native Australian, Duffy began his sports career as an Australian Rules Football player. He would go on to be drafted as the 39th overall pick in the 2012 – yes, you read that correctly – AFL Draft.
