To be fair, of course, three of the four tackles he has recorded in his time at Michigan have been solo tackles, so now and again he does get to bring out the LB skills to certain extent.
Actually, I had to chuckle at his description of what practices are like for him. Even if it does involve some down time as he mentioned, the work he puts in is no less important to the team's success, I would say.

Well, that wasn't the most exciting or fluid interview ever.

Seems like a good kid who is understands and is confident in his role. Kind of what you want in a kicker.

As a former swimmer in HS and college, I have a feeling that if played football I would view kickers in the same way I viewed divers. I keeed, I keeed....

the last time I heard that was Tate Forcier. Hopefully it's only a San Diego thing.

He's been practicing making sure when he strikes the ball it makes enough noise for Hoke to hear it.
I like that he feels comfortable with anything inside of 58 yards. Let's hope that isn't needed.

inside our 20 with a few ticks on the clock right before half. Devin to Devin to get it to the opponent's 45. 0:02 left as we use our last time out. Wile trots in. Confidently bangs one through for a bonus three spot going into the locker room. Much celebration ensues. High fives in bars across the land, encouraging more than handful of young men to finally get up the nerve to ask that really cute girl out. Sarah, Emily, Tricia. They go by different names, all equally charming. Each of these beauties says yes, of course, ensuring the dream state that Wile's end over end bomb produced will endure until the agreed upon night. Meanwhile, kids ask their parents, "Hey, we haven't been to Disney since we were four. Can we go for spring break this year?" and in their euphoria, parents say, "That's a great idea. Where's the iPad. We'll book the hotel now." And at my house, as she gets up and walks away, my wife winks in a way that says we've enough time before second half kick off, don't we? And then she disappears behind a door to the other room, leaving it slightly ajar.
I, for one, hope that 58 yard leg is needed.

I know all about being bald, and Karsch ain't bald by a long shot. Yet.
August 15th, 2014 at 11:14 AM ^
Well sure, but skulls with all of the flesh eaten off by carrion feeders are kind of by definition bald aren't they?

63 yard FG are nice. I just hope he is Mr. Automatic from inside 50.

about how good the linebackers can be, but throw Wile into th mix, and we have some serious depth.

I like that kid.
May become my new favorite M kicker before it's all said and done...in not so many words.
