Trickledown effect of Aussie punters taking over the FBS

Since most FBS teams have Australian punters many American punters that would have been FBS 10 years ago are now going FCS. With coach Hauck having a history of great special teams play can Montana become a pipeline for NFL punters? The Aussie style of punting doesn’t work in the NFL like college so you might see a lot more NFL guys coming from FCS programs.
 
There's literally 5 Australian punters in the NFL. Second, there's been 2 punters leave the Griz for FBS. Just like any other position, if you have the talent they will find you no matter where you are.
 
I think if I were a punter (or maybe kicker) I'd want to play for a not-so-great program so I could get on the field as much as possible.
