Around SBN: My First Fight: Diego Sanchez

Remember that Kicker who got invited to the Senior Bowl instead of Florida State's Graham Gano? Yeah... Utah K Louie Sakoda once again failed to impress with his leg strength and to me he is very similar to former Louisville star Art Carmody, who went undrafted last year and hasn't gotten much of a sniff from the NFL. After seeing him up close this week I would not invest a draft pick on Sakoda.

Did they ever give a reason for taking another kicker over the best in nation?

I heard....

That the senior bowl selection is done well in advace (very early in the season), and since Gano didn’t have any prior field goal kicking experience, then he wasn’t a candidtate early in the year. Surely, had they picked at the end of the season, he would be in.

Don't they need a punter too?

I vote they change the name to the Jr Bowl then

Gano was probably already going to be drafted.

Maybe they were trying to get some publicity for someone else.

Probably the best

explanation I have heard. However, I didn’t know the Senior Bowl was a charity organization.
