Arizona State HC Rips 'Atrocious' Kicker After 2 Missed FGs; Will Hold Open Tryouts

Arizona State head football coach Kenny Dillingham said Saturday that he is holding a kicking tryout next week after sophomore kicker Ian Hershey missed a pair of field goals in a 24-14 road loss to Cincinnati.

Dillingham made the announcement during a postgame press conference in which he was critical of his team's kicking struggles:

"Our kicking game's atrocious, so if you can kick and you're at Arizona State, email me," Dillingham said. "We're gonna have kicking tryouts on Monday, so bring it on. Kicking tryouts Monday, let's go. ... I'm dead serious.
