Colorado State Football has been lucky in recent years when it comes to kickers. And their latest young man might be the most impressive yet.
Jared Roberts, was the Rams kicker for the last three years. His story is heartwarming; a walk-on who turned into a first-team All-Mountain West player, possessing a big leg and solid accuracy. But Roberts is gone, and the next CSU kicker must step up.
That will be, in all likelihood, Wyatt Bryan. The redshirt freshman is the favorite to win the kicking spot, doing well in the spring scrimmages and Spring Game, going 4-6 on his kicks. His makes came from 27, 42 (twice) and 48 yards while two misses were from 51 and 45 out. Berto Garcia is in competition for the lead kicking job, and he went 2-3, with both makes coming within 30 yards.
And if he weren’t already the favorite due to his spring performance, he should be for this amazing trick kick.
This would be something special if he spun the ball with his hands to get it going, but no, Bryan uses his feet to spin the pigskin before booting it through the uprights.
