After his performance last season, his job should be up for grabs.

9 of 12 with two of the misses being from 50+ is good...

True, but he missed a 30 yard FG that would have won the GSU and made us bowl eligible.

It’s hard to gauge how good or bad he was last year. He made the kick against A&M but missed the gimme (albeit at a horrible angle) against GSU. Our aggressiveness and ability to score TDs limited his opportunities, so I am sure that played a role in his inconsistency as well. It seemed like we didn’t attempt a field goal for months during the season. I know this is a blatantly obvious statement, but we just need more consistency across the board. I think he’ll deliver this season.

So one bad kick means he was bad all season and deserves to be benched... Got it!

When a kick is missed it's not always the kicker's fault...

Very true, but in the case of Georgia Southern, it appeared to all be on Hughes.

We ran to intentionally put the ball on his preferred hash (not all kickers like it down the middle). Snap was good. Hold looked good. Hughes just didn't make it.

We took a lot of kicks away from him that’s for sure.

Silver lining- WKU would have hung 60 on us again. Better to get into the off-season quick and get ahead of coaching hires along with hitting the portal/recruiting as we did.

Blown lead to JMU, piss poor embarrassing performance at Texas State. Bowl eligibility shouldn't have come down to the foot of a kicker in the last game of the season

Love the comments about the kicker, but three weeks out from opening game, we need to be thinking about much bigger opportunities for the team! :-) I am ready! Go, App State!
