Starting as a true-Freshman, Zach Feagles was understandably imperfect, but in Sunday’s contest, we saw little-to-no improvement.
In recent memory, solid kicking has been the norm for the Hurricanes; names that come to mind are: Justin Vogel, Pat O’Donnell, Matt Bosher, and Michael Badgley, who also became Miami’s leader in career points (403) during his Senior year.
Heading into 2018, we expected the kicking game to be a challenge due to Feagles’ struggles, and breaking in a true-Freshman placekicker in Bubba Baxa.
Baxa looked decent in his Hurricane debut, converting a 38 yard field goal, whilst missing one of 40+ yards.
