When I was a senior in high school I blocked a 6'4" freshman on our team every day in practice. The guy hadn't bulked up yet and I was a little slow so he would extend his arms on me and try to backpedal and sidestep as best he could and assist in tackles as our starting offense ripped through the 2nd team D. He got a scholarship to the local 1-AA college but never got any playing time that I saw despite having some respectable bulk on his 6'6" frame.
I also played with future Clemson punter/extra point kicker Rusty Seyle in high school. He was kinda of a throwback in that he kicked goals straight ahead with a square toe-shoe that laced up from the front to behind his ankle. He had the bad luck to be teammates with a soccer style kicker at Clemson who could kick field goals further. The other kicker I played with in high school did it soccer style and I shagged balls for him during spring practice my junior year when I broke my thumb. He taught me form well enough that I could make extra points about half the time.
I’ve made a kick from my own 41 at 5’11 back when I was 165 pounds basically from technique alone, it really all comes down to momentum and technique. He forsure could generate enough force with that frame for an 80 yarder off a 3 step, As long as he has enough flexibility to pendeulum his leg well enough without needing all the speed, that’s alot of leg to work with.
when i was a ball boy 70s at univ. of richmond my late dad was the head coach southern miss. came their tall lanky 6 4 or 5 safety was the punter booming 50 plus yarders so high the ur return men werent used to and kept them inside the 20 the entire game was the difference in them winning the game dad held every punt return record at miss state for years sec had many good ones mid 50s but the best punter he said was that tall lanky safety ray guy my brother and i watched him in warmups we never forgot that how that tall skinny guy could punt the ball especially that high some would sail 60 and one of the best kickers he every played against was the defensive end for kentucky he died last year was like 6 8 or 9 dad recalled but cant think of his name is a hall of famer at k.u. and maybe n.f.l. also could kick catch tight end and d.e. was tough to block dad recalled he was in the backfield with art davis

I think you messed up your own joke. I think you meant to say he’s: (6’9” & 9”) The joke doesn’t work correctly when you say it as you did, of a guy who’s 6 foot 9 inches tall, and you say 6’ AND 9”
being tall doesnt mean ur good at basketball bro ive seen tall kids with butter fingers and no vert but sometimes they have other strengths unconventional for their height.... like punting or shooting (in basketball)
This guy was a FG kicker and could kick it a country mile. Problem was that nobody knew what direction it was gonna go. Punter seems like the logical choice. I hope he does well.
On the first punt the returner wasn’t star struck or anything. He just knew he already had 3-4 kicking team gunners behind him, between him and the end zone. So he fair caught it to save 4 yds and avoid his offense being pinned at the 1 yd line But I get it, your version is better for YT and cooler narrative for the brain fried, dopamine deficient Tik Tok crowd
He should reach out to some Australian Football League trainers. There are exercises that Australians do to cope with the kicking done in AFL that would help him stay healthy.
my question is why is this kid at montana state, you would think with a leg like that even if he couldn't punt ( which he clearly can ) he'd have a spot at a bigger school as a kickoff specialist
Brendan Hall transferred from Southern Methodist Univ. He grew up in Springtown Texas. Hope people understand your sarcastic humor with "unfair" in your title. Wondering why he's not playing Basketball
@@paulrTXBeing taller generally correlates with better throwing, since you can throw it faster and get a better grip (bigger hands usually). The biggest issue is that tall guys are usually a little slow.
@@KorZen10 The issue is, when quarterbacks are really tall (above 6'6" usually), due to the typical height difference between the quarterback and his receivers, the ball often accelerates too much before reaching the receiver's hands, making it harder to catch, or so I've heard.
@@greninjamastergabe6452 That's absolutely possible as well. Good receivers should be able to catch the ball regardless of its velocity, but that could totally be a factor, especially at the lower skill levels.

You have to be the most unathletic person in your school district to be power forward height, and the only sports position you can fill is the soccer reject slot.
So here's my idea..don't know why NFL GM don't get 7'2"" basketball player....make him a tight-end.....if you need first down of a T-D just throw the ball to him noone can out reach him .....just saying...I would do it.!!!!
those guys are beasts but get hurt way too much and too easily for NFL ball. Even guys like Gates, Gronk, Jimmy Graham, it's a tough life playing TE or football in general when you're that tall. Guys like Wemby spend so much time preventing injuries, and that's just for NBA play, imagine in the NFL.
Plus, DBs and even LBs these days have serious hops. On the other hand however, the game is more and more offense friendly and antagonistic to hits. So who knows you could be right.
I've always thought it would be funny to build an entire offense of offensive-tackle type builds and just phalanx charge everyone with 3500lbs of mass.
"Almost got that ball an assault charge against a cheerleader."
My non sporty wife loved that comment.
Lol, that was a good one

all i gotta say is as a native montana state bobcats fan im glad to have him, and im glad to have came back in this game and won
MSU fan here I’m happy we get recognition
The kid from Iowa last year was the goat of punting. Australian guy
Two back to back videos of me being intrigued by punting.. just take my subscription dude
Hope to see him in the NFL next year!
I came into this thinking he must be an Aussie ex-ruckman. I was wrong!
but maybe he should become a Ruckman in AFL, like Mason Cox
I thought so too. He even punts like an AFLer.
Special Teams is gonna be rough against the Grizzlies this year. The NDSU game will be worth watching every play.

well, least he can make a tackle or lay someone out if he needs to on returns. massive he be
He reminds me of Zack Hample.
Makes me think what if Aaron Judge was a kicker haha
Really hope he goes to the NFL
Just waiting for someone like Shaq or Yao Ming to start kicking field goals now. 🤨
If the kickoff goes through the uprights, he gets his drinks paid for after the game, right?
Wow! Has there ever been a field goal kicker of that height?
Ray Guy was pretty tall. Of course, he was a punter. I can't think of a super tall placekicker. Most of them are average height or kinda short.
@dr.awkward9075 thanks for that. Still learning a lot about the sport. Wish I got into it years ago.
Tallest I can think of is Daniel Carlson who plays for the Raiders rn and Stephen Hauschka who used to play for the Seahawks are both 6'5
He was also the field goal kicker for MSU last year. It did not go well so now he just does punts and kickoffs extremely well.
could you get a field goal on a kick off?
How did he get out of Texas? Why didn't he go to a bigger school?
He was at a bigger school.
Nice
It would be scary watching him try to tackle you too
Bengals do desperately need a punter
I know it's a camera effect but his legs look like rubber when he's kicking it
Go Cats!

1st ROUND PICK!!!!
So this guy can casually hit 70 yard fg
at 6’9” the last thing i’m doing is being a punter
He could’ve said 6’10 or 6’8 but he decided to choose 6’9 😉
Definitely somebody’s draft pick.
Put his ass on kick off… dude could be a terrorizing kicker 😂
Alabama should steal him!!!!😂
He'd make a great QB on his height alone.
6'9 is too tall for a good QB. Even Brock Osweiler wasn't that tall and he often had a rough time landing his passes accurately.

If only I were 4 inches taller I’d be nice.
Slight advantage playing in the Big Sky with most games played at mid-high elevation.
You right. It would have only gone 85 yards instead of 90 yards.
We’ll see how he does at Portland State, then, since Hillsboro Stadium is only about 200’ up.
So what you're saying is Denver needs to draft him.
