Explain to me why he was an alternate on the shrine game roster please. Not trying to be facetious, just having trouble understanding how obviously the best kicker in the state is not the starter.
Alabamagrizzly, you may not have seen it, but the East selection committee took it in the chin hard on Twitter over this. Literally dozens of people posted angry comments about it. Apparently the selection committee came back and said “yes” he is a fantastic kicker, but he is “only” a kicker. Apparently they don’t just take kickers to play in the Shrine Game. They selected other kids that “also” kicked. Even a couple collegiate level coaches weighed in publicly and said the selection committee has 1-2 players for every position except punter and kicker...it was dumbfounding??? I live in Billings and I don’t know Camden Capser, but I think he got screwed over pretty hard because he is “just” a kicker!
