    If somone has 5 posts, and all of them mention Andre Johnson it is a fairly sure assessment that they are a friend or relative. (head nod)

        BTW - I have no problem with Sievertsen, per se. Don't know why Farley is sticking with Billy at this point, unless the cupboard is bare. Billy has something going inside his head at this point, much like a golfer with the yipes. Hopefully Billy can breakthrough and return to the form he had earlier in his career.

            Jay, don't even lie.. if you post about him then you obviously are a friend or relative, you are probably like his half brother or something..

              Jay has 7,000 posts, one of them is about said player. That is almost 1 10,000th of a percent of his posts, not the 100% that the earlier poster stated.

                UNI has had several good kickers and they don't right now. Nobody and I mean nobody in the stands has any confidence in him at all.
                I was standing in the end zone where he had the early field goal blocked by ISU's #22 Ter'ron Benton and the picture of it was front page of the DSM Register. Ter'ron came unblocked off the edge. What is a kicker supposed to do about that? No one even attempted to block him.

                  That's the exact same situation that happened last week against SDSU. How is that kind of crap Billy's fault?

                    7000 posts is a whole different issue! Yikes!

                      It's not and I wasn't saying it was. And I'm not defending the missed FG's this season, there's no excuses for that. But at some point we need some blocking too. The Iowa game was the same way. You can say low trajectory is the reason they were blocked, but there was also no blocking on our part. After I got home from the Iowa game I watched it on DVR a couple of times. Iowa's line went through ours like it was wet paper. There's at least a combination of low kicks and poor blocking.

                        You guys have to understand anything that is blocked off the edge is the kickers fault. They are un-blocked and if the kick isn't executed in 1.3-1.35 seconds or less it is going to get blocked. With having early season struggles Billy could be pressing a bit and slowing down. Thats a fine approach, just has to be "not too slow." Unfortunately Billy is struggling mentally right now. It will be fixed, or he won't be there. At some point in time progress will be made by Billy, or a replacement will be sent in.

                          Agreed completely, and I've said the blocking things many many times about the Iowa game, and other blocks he has had.

                          Here is a thought. Maybe Billy is missing kicks because of how often there is someone at his feet trying to block it. This falls under the "mental" aspect of it, but think about it. Billy has had a couple kicks blocked this year, due to blocking, the Iowa kicks were a combination of being "a little low" and little blocking, twice on PAT's against SFA he was "roughed"/hit, and every other PAT there has been someone laying at his feet because they just missed a block.


                          At some point the fear of having every kicked blocked will alter his approach to the ball, his follow through, and his confidence.

                          Just some food for thought

                              People......its not the blocking. Don't be soo naive

                              We have one of the best Oline coaches in FCS....

                                Indiana St sucks out loud and I doubt they have this much trouble kicking FG. How can UNI not be able to put a blocking line on the field?

                                I call this sort of talk BS.
