I still can’t figure out why Quinn Sharp is not still making millions kicking in the NFL? I don’t ever remember him really even getting much of a look! What, I think he was with the Bengals originally? Astonishing

You forgot the Walter Camp Football Foundation. Chuba made first team there.

That is an impressive number of AA from 2008-2013 (17) in a 5 year span. Definitely the Golden Age of Cowboy football. Looks like 83-88 would have been the previous best era 5 year span.

Hear, hear. I thought Sharp was a CAN’T MISS kind of talent. If not kicker then certainly punter. He was with Cincy and didn’t beat out their returning guy, I wanna say he was from Oregon or Oregon State. He tried out with another NFL club, didn’t make it then went to Canada where he kicked for maybe half a season.
I really think, as with a lot of sports, it’s which team selects you and who their coaching staff is and for skill guys what offense they run. I’m a Steelers fan but they’re making me sick how they did Mason Rudolph. They were running a VERY conservative offense in that Browns game, run twice then pass on 3rd and long, making it difficult for any QB. But getting off the point with Sharp. I think he goes to the right team and situation his career is as good as Dan Bailey’s because to me, and no slight to Dan who is really good, Sharp was better.
RE Chuba, well deserved. Great kid, great ambassador for oSu, amazing talent. I hope he comes back for one more and if he does, he needs to get an insurance policy just in case!
