After previewing Lester Coleman and Andrew King, two members of UVA's #TeamKick who are likely to serve primarily as backups in 2016, our focus turns to one of the legs that ought to be front and center in Bronco Mendenhall's first year.

Dylan Sims spent 2015 as the primary kickoff specialist, reprising the same role he played in all of 2014 and the final two-thirds of 2013. His touchback rate has increased each year he's been with the Hoos, from 37 percent in 2013, to 45 percent in 2014, to an even 50 percent last season.
