Punter Joseph Charlton will hold on field goals and extra points for South Carolina’s football team this year.
While he does that, reserve quarterbacks Dakereon Joyner and Jay Urich are expected to be standing on the sideline contributing nothing to the Gamecocks, at least on game days. Joyner and Urich are both highly athletic quarterbacks with good enough ball-handlings skills to be star quarterbacks for their high school teams.
So, why not use Joyner or Urich as the holder to open up more options on fake kicks?
Time management, says USC special teams coordinator Coleman Hutzler.
