New walk on kicker had a 75% touchback rate his last year of high school. He also punts. Big leg supposedly.
Meh. Frost knows enough qualified people to find somebody to fill that role well. He does need to take advantage of the rules on coaches and hire somebody before spring ball to leverage his staff's time.
Jonathan Rutledge from Auburn:
Auburn seems to have pretty good special teams the last few years. This ranking had them 13th nationally last year: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/ncaa/fei/overallst/2019
ESPN had them 36th nationally in Special Teams Efficiency: http://www.espn.com/college-football/statistics/teamratings/_/sort/stEfficiency/tab/efficiency.
Comparatively, Nebraska was 112th and 120th nationally in 2019.
