Mainly concerned about our kicking, feel like there's always a game where we left some points on the table (like Ole Miss last year) where we had snap issues, missed some short kicks, etc.
 
Hoping it turns out well with the newcomers. We still have Chance Poore too so kickoffs at least should not be a concern. I don’t know who the starting punter will be but Wilson Berry should do fine if he is the incumbent starter. FG’s will be a wait and see.

Update on my nephew Kellan McLaughlin. Many of you on here know I was hoping he would have ended up at UK but a poor recruiting job by the previous guy in charge of recruiting special teams cost us a chance at him. He’s at Miami OH now and we just got word he made the travel squad. We don’t know yet if he will be named the kickoff specialist or not, that what they recruited him to compete for initially until their current kicker who’s been handling both duties graduates. But Kellan did boot a 60 yarder in an intrasquad scrimmage last week. They play Miami U on Friday night on the ACC network.
 
KSR mentioned that the transfer from ???? has been looking very good in fall camp.
Hope the long snappers are looking equally as good. They didn’t do Ruffalo any favors last year. A few of his misses were on them.
