Great for Cole. I am stilled surprised that Trevor Moore never caught on with a team.

Great news! Congrats Cole!

Especially with the way Pittsburgh's kicker hit the skids last season.

How many Mean Green players going to NFL camps now ?

[THOR]

looks like 6 have been signed, would be 7 if murray did well in seattle

Would be 8 if Mayfield can do well in the Bucs mini camp.

Even though Vinatieri is expected to be the Colts kicker, this is a great opportunity for Hedlund.  

Mike Badgley was in a similar spot last year as the Colts' camp leg until Vinatieri took over halfway through the preseason.  The experience and exposure proved valuable as  Badgley was picked up by the Chargers in October, finished the season as their full time kicker, and now looks to be their long-term plan for the position.

Isn't 6 or 7 or even 8 a lot ?

Or Will Atterberry or Jason Ball, etc. 🤷‍♂️

Maybe Trevor should give the Berries a try...

Does anyone know if he is still trying to catch on with a team or has he given up on the dream?

[trud1966]

What a great story it would make if he earns his way onto a pro team, after Arkansas tossed him aside and ran him off, only the see him again in a UNT uniform, and get their a$$ kicked...Then capped off with a pro contract....Needs to happen...

Seems like I read somewhere that Trevor showed up to the latest NT pro day.

[blurbeard]

Yes both Cole & Trevor were competing at NT pro day.

And that brings up a question.  Do we think Cole will list  his school as North Texas or Arkansas ?  He took some grad courses here but his degree is from Hawg-land.

THE University of North Texas.  We loved him and the Hawgs ran him out of town.  Plus, grad courses at UNT> undergrad degree from Piggy U.

Does this answer your question?
