Man Gets Hit In Groin With Football

What in the world is going on with the kickers? This is just dumb. All of the sudden, we could be down to one kicker. How many kickers are you supposed to keep on the roster? Stephen Hoge is quitting. Here's the Jacob Branstetter situation (technically a transfer from Air Force):

"The family is currently in the process of petitioning the NCAA for a waiver that would allow Branstetter to compete for the Jayhawks this season.

“The letter is in the (KU) compliance office and they’re supposed to send it into the NCAA (Tuesday),” said Gerald Branstetter, who was first informed of the problem Thursday. “I’ve heard it could be as quick as 24 hours, or it could be weeks. For Kansas’ sake, and Jacob’s, I hope it’s 24 hours and he gets to play.”

If not, it leaves Butler County Community College transfer Grady Fowler as the team’s likely kicker entering the season."
