I heard during the AZ games that Oldroyd's back problems are caused by his
"unique" kicking style that actually is hurting his back. Can anyone confirm what that is?

Kalani sounded frustrated with the Oldroyd situation

why has he been out? back issue?

Yep.

I like that he is putting some pressure on the kid. Suck it up or get replaced.

Oldroyd was an All-American last year. Cut him a little slack.

“Last year”…I agree but we are 4 games into this year now.

4?

Getting ahead of myself but we are preparing for our 4th and need to know status

I understand the frustration. The old maxim: availability is the most important

You don’t think Oldroyd has pressure on him already? What a dumb comment.
Pigskin Pete

Sounds like Jakes situation is a little different based on the coaches comments
Backcountry
9/20/21 4:53pm
Watching Oldroyd warm up I could tell that he was trying to kick through it.
Pigskin Pete
9/20/21 5:01pm
Sounds like its time to shut it down for the year.
Backcountry
9/20/21 5:06pm
I hope not. The season’s just getting started and he’s by far the best
Pigskin Pete
9/20/21 5:18pm
Yeah, suck it up and go out there and suck it up. Sounds like a plan.

Suck it up? Have you ever had a back injury?

Our kickers need to stop lifting so much weight. Justin Sorensen always had
dYrtbYkerYder
9/20/21 1:41pm
Was it caused by weight lifting?

Lamb seemed to hint at that on last week's Coordinator's Corner.
dYrtbYkerYder

His injury was not caused by weightlifting.

NFL kickers seem to do just fine looking like string beans

Sorensen had all sorts of issues. Power lifting, fell off a step on his mission

It was an injury incurred during kicking. Not weightlifting.

Lamb said today that Smith has almost the same range as Oldroyd

Lamb was also high on Critchlow. You gotta take his player hyping with a

He also ID'd Chris Wilcox as a high upside prospect. Don't just point out his

9/20/21 1:49pm
He's done that with a lot of successful and lesser-recruited athletes
Indy Coug
9/20/21 1:54pm
Particularly when Critchlow is lambasted mostly for his year NO QBs looked great
SinkingQuffa
9/20/21 1:59pm
He hypes everybody. Of course he’s going to be correct on the ones that pan out.
Corn Pop
9/20/21 1:59pm
Check how many guys have been drafted from SUU, then check how many he recruited
dYrtbYkerYder
9/20/21 2:26pm
He’s a good coach. And? He still hypes everybody regardless of ability.
Corn Pop
9/20/21 2:32pm
Little easier to gauge a kickers ability than a QBs. They either have it or they

He might have the same range, but his accuracy appears to be an issue.

What’s he supposed to say in an interview? “He’s not nearly as good as Jake

How about accuracy. Who cares how far he can kick? Except on a kickoff I guess…

Yea, Lamb called fill in Justen Smith “a young Jake Oldroyd” and said “the game

1. I think there are only so many "live snaps" with the 1s during prep week.
The Y's Insider
9/20/21 1:48pm
Sitake is the coach. Make the switch
bluelands
9/20/21 1:53pm
How many live snaps involve kickers anyway, and is Oldroyd taking them?

Lamb was frustrated with it after the AZ game, obviously mad about the weight

Seems like they could control that, no?

Rehkow also an excellent place kicker

I’d have Rehkow start practicing

I’ve heard that too, but i’m not sure whether to trust that, because

robin
9/20/21 6:07pm
I’m guessing there’s a reason he’s not on the kicking depth chart.
Pigskin Pete
9/20/21 6:40pm
My guess is that coaches like having a solid punter and want him to further
robin
9/20/21 9:13pm
I've heard that Rehkow is not interested in place kicking
AZ Coug
9/20/21 8:42pm
He sure seemed like he enjoyed taking off down the field against Tx st last year

Unfortunately, that is not the case.

Cash is a great kicker, he kicked for Chandler high with conover, never misses
moodycoug95
9/20/21 5:05pm
Then why is he third string?

My source on the team related that there were many bad experiences in fall camp
Pigskin Pete

If the coaches are frustrated....aren't they the ones that make that decision?
TheHop

I think he did. He was asked about Oldroyd and gave the answer.

Who's going to create the gofundme so we can send Oldroyd to a chiropractor?

Hes got a sore lower back, not Hashimotos

Definitely not Hashimotos--probably black mold, Lyme disease, or leaky gut/back

Back issues can be day to day. One day fine, next not. That’s just how it is

You might have heard that on CB.

Call me crazy but I bet Oldroyd is pretty dang frustrated about it too -
Pigskin Pete

If our Heisman candidate QB had these same issues I’m sure they’d be piling on.

9/20/21 4:45pm
to be fair, Oldroyd was warming up in the pregame and looked like there was zero

I hope I haven’t piled on. I feel bad for the kid, and back pain is debilitating. At the same time, if he can’t play,
cheezedawg
9/20/21 4:59pm
So you're saying just cut him and be done with it?
ochobeeguy
9/20/21 5:04pm
Not even close, but you need to give 1st team reps to Smith in all of the practices until you have some confidence Jake
cheezedawg
9/20/21 6:01pm
How many 1st team reps do kickers get? And is Oldroyd getting them?
ochobeeguy
9/20/21 8:37pm
I'm clueless here on the inner workings. My gut just tells me that it can't be good for Smith to not know if he is

No, you do everything you can to get him back ASAP.

BYU should consider hiring a kicking coach.
Dr. 91coug
9/20/21 5:13pm
Would the kicking coach say "Yo, don't hurt your back."?

Yes.

This is a good stretch of games to sit Jake and give Justin some work
