Through the Uprights - Ep 2: Jack of All Trades/The Mental Game
Chapter 3: Everyone we talked to for this podcast from Lou Groza award winners to a Pro Football Hall of Famer agreed that the best pro and college kickers are athletes who played a lot of sports growing up. As University of Florida Gators kicking great Bobby Raymond put it, they learned to be competitors by playing everything rather than just kicking. The best kickers often are “jack of all trades, master of none” until they decide to specialize in college. This episode explores the way different kickers relate other sports to their position on the football field. Surfing, pitching, golf, and even stock car auto racing are some of those sports where these world class placekickers first honed the athletic skills and a mindset that enabled them to later excel as kickers. Chapter 4: A deep dive into the mental aspect of the kicking game. This chapter is all about the techniques the best placekickers have used to stay at the top of their game. Hear about mental, visualization and practice strategies directly from Lou Groza Award winners Joe Allison (University of Memphis Tigers), Judd Davis (University of Florida Gators), Marc Primanti (North Carolina State Wolfpack), Art Carmody (University of Louisville Cardinals), Morten Andersen (New Orleans Saints, Atlanta Falcons), Matt Stover (Baltimore Ravens), and more.
