Cameron Johnston is Ohio State's human field position flipper

In his third season with the Buckeyes, the former Australian Rules Football player has developed into one of the nation's top punters.

More than two years after Urban Meyer instructed Ohio State special teams coordinator Kerry Coombs to utilize any means possible to find the Buckeyes a punter, the partnership between one of college football's foremost programs and a native Australian who had never played a down of American football before arriving in Columbus prior to the 2013 season is stronger than ever.

In his third season as a starter, Cameron Johnston is once again atop or near the national leaderboard in most punting categories, improving on his superb freshman and sophomore campaigns:
