Title: So we have a new punter, it seems
Post by: Clockwork Orange on May 16, 2013, 04:05:31 EDT
Or at least in 2014 we may have a new one:  http://www.govolsxtra.com/news/2013/may/15/former-wyoming-punter-tim-gleeson-says-he-plans/ (http://www.govolsxtra.com/news/2013/may/15/former-wyoming-punter-tim-gleeson-says-he-plans/)

It's unclear if Butch has offered him a scholarship or if he's walking on, but the timing is good. He'll be a RS Soph in 2014, with Palardy graduating and Darr a senior at that point. A 43 yard average is not bad at all for a guy just learning how to punt an american football, even at altitude in Wyoming.

Don't see how he couldn't be a walk on at this point.  We've already got too many kickers/punters on scholly as it is, and especially if he has to sit out a transfer year.  There's no way we can use another scholly right now on a kicker who isn't even eligible.
