Louisville Football Position Preview: Special Teams

Louisville started last season with an experienced and somewhat young core in their special teams unit. Mark Vassett entered his second year of college after coming in from Australia’s punting academy. James Turner won a battle to retain his job as the starting kicker. Even Shai Kochev had spent time on a college campus before transferring in. However, the transfer portal both giveth and taketh away, and the special teams unit was hit hard. Vassett transferred to Colorado and Turner went back home to kick at Michigan. Louisville is left to figure things out with a mix of returnees and transfers.
