Cougs have Zach Charme, a highly regarded punter walking on this year from Timberline HS in Boise.

Best of luck to this kid.

Dascalo was barely adequate last year. His average yards per punt looked OK, but his hang time was inconsistent, he couldn't put it out of bounds short of the end zone (one reason his yards per punt were as high as they were) and there were too many shanks and line drives.

We need 2 or 3 decent punters in order to get some decent competition. This guy looks as though he will be one of them.

"98% of his kickoffs went for touchbacks"

Nice.

That just never seems to translate.

I've been reading about big legged HS kickers who blast the ball into the 3rd row of bleachers behind the end zone for years, only to have them show up at WSU and consistently kick the ball to the 15.

Yea, same here.
Any theories on why that is, Fab?
