He was not as effective last year hitting on only 12-19 of his FG attempts. I'm guessing he is not viewed as a weapon like he once was. He's still automatic on extra points.

Wisconsin never gets close enough to even try a FG, they are awful.
Maybe he’ll transfer back to help us. LOL

Honestly, if he can hit every extra point and hit 12-19 including some long range tries easy invite.

I see he is now in a class action lawsuit in an attempt to get a 5th year.

Based on...?

He started 51 games in four years. Started as a true freshman hit 49 / 50 XP and transferred for another three full years at Wisconsin?

They are claiming limiting to 4 competitive years is an illegal restraint of trade under antitrust law, restricting their ability to work and earn in the newly established college sports labor market. The NCAA's position is of course the "4 in 5" limit is essential to keeping it attached to actual academic students.

The next lawsuit will probably challenge whether its restraint of trade to even require enrollment and the attendance at classes. In the immortal words of a former OSU QB (who later retracted this statement), "We ain't come here to play no school."

You could make an argument that this quote set him up for life.

Why should they be limited to 4 years? Why should they have to attend class? You can't seriously pretend that it's actually related to college anymore. It's just minor league football that happens to play on campuses. Can anyone make a serious argument that it's still somehow related to education?

Once it is freely acknowledged that former "College" teams are professional sports, maybe we will see Ohio State promoted up to the NFL, while the Browns gets relegated down to the B1G.
