Bob Stoops: Place-kicking No. 1 concern


Posted August 24, 2010 by Jake Trotter Comment on this article Leave a comment

Suffice to say, Bob Stoops was not fired up Tuesday about the Sooners’ situation at place-kicker, where Patrick O’Hara, Jimmy Stevens, Bryce Easley and Michael Hunnicutt are all vying for the starting job.

How did your kickers handle Tuesday’s wind?

“Not good enough,” Stoops said.

Is that your No. 1 concern?

“Sure.”

What is the story with the kicking competition?

“There isn’t anybody that’s nailed it down. They’ll be fine at times, then they won’t be.”

Thursday, the Sooners are holding walk-on tryouts. Stoops admitted his eyes will be on those who show up to kick.

Said Stoops: “We’re going to evaluate some guys.”
