Couple Things on Feagles

That is false, and you're just making **** up. There are several articles on 247 and Rivals discussing how he should be better because he looks good in practice.

Not surprised you'd make things up given your posting history though

This is hilarious coming from the guy that will make up and skew stats every chance he gets to defend his idol Richt.

It’s bizarre in that he looks great warming up. But, when it goes live, he almost totally misses the ball. It would be a crime if Spicer didn’t get a chance to punt in games.

He looked terrible in warm ups for LSU and the backup looked good. good hand time and average distance. Change them out.
 
You know its a cold day in **** when you think to yourself, "well AG could find a punter, we should bring him back as ST coach"! Oh that was so effing hard to type and it almost made me throw up in my mouth. Yeah this is a sad state of affairs for our punting unit...……...
 
I appreciate the legacy thing, and loyalty, but I have watched a ton of football the last half century and never seen a punter hurt a team worse over two seasons, than ours has. He is way beyond redemption at this point.

People ridiculously point to him having some 50 yard punts late in the game ****, it was over by then because of that 25 yard average his first 3 punts gifted LSU and their scoring drives. The excuses: "He can do it", "Just needs to Relax", "They almost blocked it, so he was rattled".

Punters all over the country, at ever level face that - if you are a scholarship punter at a Division-1 program, presumably you should have figured out how to deal with that aspect of the position before you get to a big game. Why? So you don't repeatedly put your defense on short fields at the worst possible times. Its like an energy drink boosting a momentum shift.
 
Hartley has no clue what he is doing.

Miami special teams used to be a difference maker for us. They still are I guess. Just not in a good way.
 
Anybody catch the blocking on the punt team. Not exactly a punters dream. We are lucky the LSU guy was so shocked that no one blocked him he panicked worse than the punter. It was the first or second punt of the game. We definitely need a new special teams coach.
 
So I have heard a lot of media questions about the QB situation to Richt, but has anyone asked him about Feagles? It should be common sense to bench him, we need to pressure him into making this move if he hasn't already

You would have to believe the head coach is not in favor of giving the opposing team the ball at the 50 (or worse) every time he decides to punt.

He's gotta make a change.

He honestly didn’t look bad

His PAT were solid and he drilled his first FG, I think the second one he just tried to over hit. Looked like a good hold snap etc. Just tried to really drill it and hooked it. Only thing I found slightly interesting was the he was not booming them out of the endzone on kickoffs. We heard a lot about how strong his leg was but even the LSU freshman was kicking them out of the endzone.
 
Feagles is a friggen mystery wrapped in a riddle. To the poster above who "watched him in warmups and looked bad, no you didn't." I've watched Feagles warm up several times and EACH AND EVERY TIME he booms the living **** out of the ball. The kid has a leg but for whatever reason, and it really doesn't matter, when the lights are on and the band is playing, he gets the yips. The kid has an All American leg, one of his warmup punts went from the back of the end zone to the opponent 40. He either needs to toughen up mentally or transfer to a school that doesn't play on tv. Or with lights. Or with a band. Basically intramural or NAIA.

That first punt, our entire section gasped and I couldn't believe it wasn't blocked. I guess that shook him. But good Lord, he needs to toughen up or see a sports psychologist and probably both.

The other punter warming up with him is pretty decent FWIW, but has nowhere near the leg Feagles has. But these 20 yd punts and opponents starting at the 40 is cot darn ridiculous.
 
I make the argument that if LSU and Miami switched kickers and kickers only, we win. That's how bad our kicking game was and especially compared to LSU. We must have lost 100+ yds in field position alone.
